Product: V8Q15AA 510-P024
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I would like to upgrade from the 180W power supply in my 510-P024 small form factor desktop to about 350W. How can I tell which power supplies will work. I haven't had any luck on the net. 

I believe the model number is V8Q15AA

@dsm451, welcome to the forum.

 

I believe that it is a standard ATX power supply unit (PSU).  You should measure the area where the PSU will be installed.  Then, choose a PSU that will fit into that space.  Here is a PSU that should work.  Here are the measurements for it: 5.9" x 3.39" x 5.51".  It is 550W and is modular.  Modular PSU's are good for small cases because you can only use the cables that are absolutely necessary.  I always recommend at least 500W.  The PSU is the backbone of the computer.  It is not the place to save money.
