I have had a charger for my Toshiba Satellite L25 S-1192 which apparently does not charge the battery. http://www.ebatts.com/toshiba_satellite ... c-c10.aspx
This link is for the charger but my question is will this charger charge my Toshiba Satellite L25 S-1192 notebook battery.
I needed to know, becuase i am tired of my notebook acting as a desktop but smaller.
got a question

Re: got a question
Does your ac adaptor power your laptop? If it does it should be able to charge it also!chotachatri12 wrote:I have had a charger for my Toshiba Satellite L25 S-1192 which apparently does not charge the battery. http://www.ebatts.com/toshiba_satellite ... c-c10.aspx

If it powers it and it doesnt charge I'd look at your battery being a problem.
I have a problem with my Toshiba Laptops ac cord not getting a good connection. If its not inserted just right it wont power it or charge it!

im sorry i was unable to access legitreviews from my computer at home so anyways i think in the usermanuel somewhere says dont use unbranded charger for the notebook and i doesnt charger my battery. i doubt that the battery needs replacement it only about 1 and 1/2 years old there should be no problem
It is most likely a battery problem 
while the tell you the batteries are good for 500 or so charge/discharge cycles (about a year 1 &1/2 of daily use)
you are lucky if you have gotten 1/2 that many before you notice reduced run times or even no charging (laptops are NOT cheap to buy OR maintain 
A couple things to check in the manual/MFG website is if there is a fuse/circuit breaker somewhere either in the battery or in the power/charging circuit that MIGHT be user replacable/resetable.
If you are still under warranty (batteries are usually NOT included, or have a very limited time span, but check to see if it's a recalled version (free replacement
) or if they offer a reduced replacement price.
if warranty is over, I would consider an Aftermarket battery for a reputable reseller (not the cheapest, but still 1/2-1/3 the price of a factory battery) that offers a replacement/return option.
I've had good luck at http://batteries.com/index.asp and they even free rush shipped replacements for 2 out of 36 that were found to be defective 2-3 months later for a client. (I recommend allowing for yearly replacements for all laptop buyers, and to buy several spares for power users/road warriors who tend to eat/lose batteries even faster than expected
If you can find a friend that uses the same model batteries/charger you can ask them to test your battery and charger.
