    Welcome to the Dell Community @Mess82 

    Remove battery and locate label with the laptop power requirements.

    It will look like 19.5V ~ ???A

    Volts x Amps = Watts

    Your AC adapter is 19.5V x 16.9A = 329.55W (330W)

    Since you have a SMART power system your AC can always be larger than what the system requires.

    Best regards,

    U2

    If that's the actual battery, it's nowhere near "new" -- it was made in 2014, making it about the same age as the system, or 7  years old.  

    If it was sold to you as "new", I'd return it to the seller for a refund -- it isn't.

    Most of precision M4800 with discrete graphics uses 180W power supply.
