Laptop Power Cord

[BigBrother]

Anyone have a blown up laptop, (toshiba), with a power cord that I might purchase?

$100 retail to replace a power cord on the $330 laptop I have is a bit too fucking much. I will buy a new laptop before I do that shit.

Having a similar problem with my charger, its positional. On top of that after I had it a year or two the backlight for the screen got a short and I had to pay like 350 to fix it cause it wasnt under warranty (imagine that). Now like two years later im having the same problem again with the backlight so I guess im gonna have to buy a new one cause im not putting another 350 in this one and a universal charger is like 80$.

personally i would get a cheapo off ebay for around $20-30. it might not be the factory charger but it will get the job done for a while. if it doesnt work send it back. just my .02 and a way to save you from having to invest half the cost of your computer in a charger.

X2. BB one of my girlfriends just had this happen this week. She said she went to purchase it and was given the same price as you ($100). She ordered one off of Ebay for MUCH less.

BB,

Send me, or post up, some pics of what the computer-end plug looks like... and the specs on the converter, e.g., 12v 750ma, etc.

I've got a number of old chargers that fit all sorts of items, just need to see if they'll fit what you need.

What's the laptop model number as a double check? In the meantime, I'll check my 'magic boxes of parts' (as my wife calls them) and see if I have anything in that range.

Hey lot of good P2P advice here. What this forum for.....


Like others said might can find a cheap adaptor on the ebays. craiglists of this world but I would avoid that..... Go diret to manuf first, then check the universal adpaptors that bestbuy, wallmart etc sells... the universals run 60 to 100+ so sounds like a laptop you might wanna chunk... I have around 10 around here if you are interested

bb go to ebay had same problem with an HP went the bestbuy and they wanted $100 so i went to ebay and had one delivered for around $15 in a few days. good hunting!

I found a 19.5v one, but the amps were low. I could have sworn I had a Toshiba modem converter that might have fit, but must have given it away already as it's nowhere to be found. Sorry.

I hate ebay with a purple passion...but will bite the bullet. Tired of not having a computer.

Woody, thanks for checking man. I owe you one anyway. If you are ever down my way hollar, I owe you a beer or something.
