NEC PC-VP-BP103 AC Adapter for NEC LAVIE N15 Review

NEC PC-VP-BP103 AC adapter for the NEC LAVIE N15 N1575BA, N1535BA and N1575CA.

PC-VP-BP103 is NEC's genuine adapter for the higher tier LAVIE N15 models in our catalog: PC-N1575BA, N1535BA and N1575CA. NEC confirms about 108.5 x 46.5 x 29.5mm and about 240g, and its support page lists the same adapter across many LAVIE lines from 2014 to 2021, including the N14. Resellers rate it 20V 3.25A (65W). The plug size is not confirmed by NEC. Lower tier N15 models use the 192g PC-VP-BP98.

Fitment answer

OEM confirmed for the LAVIE N15 models below, per NEC's support page for PC-VP-BP103.

NEC confirms about 108.5 x 46.5 x 29.5mm and about 240g without the cord. The 20V 3.25A (65W) output is reseller data. A 4.0 x 1.7mm round plug appears on generic 65W NEC listings, not on NEC's page.

Which laptops this fits

LAVIE N15 PC-N1575BA, PC-N1535BA and PC-N1575CA.

NEC's support page also lists BP103 for many other LAVIE lines from 2014 to 2021, including the N14, Home Mobile, Hybrid ZERO, Note Standard and LaVie S, E, Z and G models, with restrictions on some 2018 to 2019 CPU options. Check your model on that page.

Connector and wattage checks

The adapter follows the CPU tier. NEC's catalog lists the N1576/CA at 240g (BP103) and the N1566/CA at 192g (BP98). Our data has the N1575AA on BP98 but the N1575BA and N1575CA on this unit.

The plug is not confirmed by NEC. Compare with your current adapter.

Voltage must match exactly, wattage is a floor. Do not drop to the 45W class BP98 on these models.

Genuine vs third party

PC-VP-BP103 is NEC's genuine adapter.

NEC does not publish the output or plug on its support page, so a third party substitute is unknown territory. If you go third party, match the 20V, at least 3.25A, and the plug on your current adapter. We would buy the genuine unit.

If this is not yours

Read the part number printed on the adapter you are replacing and the model code on your laptop's label. If neither appears on this page, this is not your part.

Own a lower tier N15 such as N1565CA or N1575AA? Look at PC-VP-BP98. For everything else, browse our full laptop parts catalog at /laptop-parts.

FAQs

Can I use a higher wattage adapter?

Yes, if the voltage and plug match exactly. Voltage is fixed, wattage is a floor. NEC does not publish BP103's plug, so compare it on the replacement before buying.

Why does my LAVIE say plugged in, not charging?

Check it is not running on the 45W class BP98. A lower wattage adapter can power the laptop at idle and refuse to charge under load.

Does PC-VP-BP103 fit my LAVIE N14?

NEC's support page lists the N14 among the series BP103 supports. Check your exact model code on that page, because NEC notes restrictions for some CPU options.
