Does Asus X551M can run without a battery?

I have an Assus X551M laptop. Without a battery (which is dead) it does start to some degree: power diode lights up some brief noise from the CD or HDD but: the CPU fan does not start the screen does not react at all The power supply is 19V 1,75A, 33W which does not seem a lot. From checking on the Internet it says that around 30W is the absolute minimum in general for any laptop.
