Toshiba +Power Supplies

Comment:

My son has a Toshibs Satellite Pro 6100 and it's now on its 3rd power supply! It eats the things! The unit is a genuine Toshiba PA3201U-1ACA rated at 15v-5a. Are these known to be unreliable and is there an alternative he can use? Just because he knows more than you doesn't mean he's clever - just better at bulls---ting!

Maybe the battery is bad. Could have a bad cell which just continues to take a charge. This puts a strain on the power pack. I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid...
