Product: HP EliteBook 8540p Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR)

Lately, my 65w adapter attached to my 8540w  is getting very hot. However, when I investigated further, I see that the 65w one is said to be sufficient for this mobile workstation. I looked extensively for the HP link that specifies the correct adapter for this model, buti found only references to models sold on Amazon, which all indicate 65w. Please advise. TIA.

@Kappalandi,

 

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

 

I must disagree that a 65-watt power adaptor is sufficient, the manual (p. 32) specifically mentions a 90-watt unit -even a 120-watt and 150-watt power unit: c03382696.pdf (hp.com)

Purchase option link (check with Amazon Canada): 90W AC Adapter Laptop Charger for Hp Elitebook 8460p 8470p 8440p 8560p 8760p 8460w 8470w 8570w 8770w....

 

Hope this was helpful.

 

Kind Regards,
