A power adapter is a hardware piece that brings power to your laptop. Vision Specialties is a manufacturer of hardware adapters. These adapters sometimes have technical difficulties that do not allow the laptop to function properly.

Cord Breakage

Cord breakage occurs when you store the  Dell NX061 AC Adapter in a bad position. The cable kinks, and it breaks the inner wires. When the inner wires break, the power adapter does not bring enough power to the laptop. You can sometimes see breakage on the outer cover of the cable, other times the damage may be unnoticable.

Bad Voltage

A Vision Specialty Toshiba Satellite P200-10C AC Adapter brings voltage to the computer’s motherboard, which then powers several of the expansion cards. Hard drives and other drives also plug in to the power adapter. If voltage is not regulated, the Vision Specialty adapter does not bring in enough voltage. With insufficient voltage, the computer does not function. It occasionally reboots sporadically.

Short Circut

A short circuit in a Vision Specialty adapter causes the adapter to stop functioning. This means that no power is brought to the computer’s motherboard, and the computer will not turn on when you press the power button. If you have another power adapter, you can use it to power the computer. This is how you test the power adapter to ensure it is the cable and not the computer’s hardware.

Damage

If you accidentally spill liquid on the adapter, it can cause the Vision Specialty device to stop working. Always keep the adapter in a safe location to ensure that it is not exposed to elements. Rain or other liquids damage the Dell Inspiron 1720 AC Adapter. Do not plug the adapter into your computer after it is exposed to water. It can damage the computer’s hardware as well as break the adapter.
