A Hot Bargain, Literally,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 100V-240V (Input), 19V (Output), 4.74A(Output Current), 90W, Replacement Laptop AC Adapter for TOSHIBA (Electronics)
This will do the job for a while. However, overheating may be a significant risk for some.
It's great for a replacement or spare power adapter. However, it does become dangerously hot. This not only poses a risk of fire or meltdown damage, but is also an indicator that the item will not function for very long. Capacitors (little electronic components inside the unit) are relatively sensitive to excessive heat. Over time, overheated capacitors will begin to bulge, sometimes bursting, and will cease to function. Surprisingly, power adapter overheating is common for these cheap replacements. Although, actively charging for short periods, less than 15 minutes or so, these adapters may never overheat. And, for those who typically leave their batteries continuously charging, an occasional overheating may be an acceptable risk. Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately), I am one of those individuals. I know... I know... I shouldn't leave it plugged in all of the time. But, it's such a hassle to have to plug it in after every full charge and to unplug every other couple of hours. Contrary to the picture for this item at the time of this writing, the unit does not have the grip ribs on the sides nor a straight plug. I doubt the ribs will matter to anyone. However, the angled plug that comes with this unit has been known to cause problems. Angled plugs may seem like a good idea to prevent accidental disconnects. However, it takes surprisingly little force to damage laptop power jacks. And, newer laptops have the jacks integrated (hardwired) into the motherboard, leaving them non-replaceable. Such is the case with my wife's laptop with a now damaged power jack. It is also worthy to note that the adapter did come with the separate power cable.

This product I got for my godson who's adapter was eaten up by the family pet. His netbook had been in his room for months because he could nor charge his netbook. He found the adapter at Amazon, and I ordered it, it came quick, and i now have a happy camper!
