Toshiba PTMB3U Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Toshiba brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. Because Toshiba has been known to use a single AC adapter that powers multiple other machines, be sure you choose the right one. A universal power adapter can be used if you are desperate. The Toshiba PTMB3U AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Major indications your power adapter is dying
- Most Toshiba AC adapters get warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- The laptop does not operate while solely using the AC adapter
- Your Toshiba battery refuses to charge up every time

Try to always purchase computer products from a reputable seller when you buy online. It is in your best interest to write down the OEM part number so you order the correct power adapter replacement. Your Toshiba PTMB3U laptop will love you more for thinking before buying.
