Title: Toshibe Laptop li-ion Battery External Charger???
Post by: chrisdavis on January 16, 2008, 12:00:50 PM
Talk about a long shot...

My old laptop has a bunk power cord connection.  The plug doesnt really stay in properly.  Its been beat all to hell.  I used to able to tape it on the back of the laptop, but even that doesnt work anymore.  I took it to a local guy to fix it and he wanted to charge me 400 to rebuild the plug/housing, which the cpu aint really worth.  Toshiba tech support has been completely useless, google hasnt taken me anywhere good either.

So, anybody know of an external battery charger for a Toshiba laptop battery?  The model number is:   Li-ion Battery Pack Model NO. PA33383U-1BRS (DC14.8V---6450mAh)

I dont need a new battery, i need a way to charge the battery while not in the laptop.  Does such a thing even exist????  I know this is very unlikely, but never hurts to ask...Cd
