I never tried it with a Toshiba but my Dell Inspiron 8600 (19.5 volts)
was plugged into my inverter for several years without incident.  I had
purchased a Targus DC adapter with the computer but it had 2 problems.
One was by design (it would run the laptop but not charge it) and the
other is it had a flaky DC plug and the computer didn't receive power
from it reliably.  So, I reverted to the inverter for a while.

I have since purchased a DC adapter (works off the cigar lighter) that
the computer sees as being on AC.  In other words, it both runs the
laptop and charges the battery.
