Toshiba Satellite M500 Power Adapter
The Toshiba Satellite M500 power adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery and powering the laptop. If you decide to buy an non-Toshiba adapter, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. A universal AC adapter is another possibility but only if necessary. Because Toshiba has been known to use a single AC adapter that is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain you select the correct one for the Satellite M500 model. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, selecting the Toshiba OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go.
Signals the Toshiba power adapter is in need of replacing
- Battery does not charge at all
- Most Toshiba adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for any length of time
- The laptop does not operate while solely using the AC adapter
