That or most electronics stores will sell you a line socket for a dollar or 
2 ... most power supplies you'll find (for things other than laptops), 
including some auto adapters, use 2.5mm plugs so I used to have a 2.5 to 
3.5 adapter for the L50, I've just made a 2.5 to a L100-like plug (its 
actually a modified PC LED header) for my L100 ... a tad neater than the 
box method (but equally useful!).

Actually, Chester and Gennadiy aren't quite accurate on this ... You can 
use ANY 15 volt DC power supply as long as its rated at 1.5 amps or above 
(I think the stock Toshiba PSU is rated at 2.5A but I've not seen the libby 
draw more than 1.5A except maybe on peak). The only sticking point is that 
connector. The L50/70 and L100/110 (and for that matter, the Portege) power 
supplies are identical. If you cut the connectors off an L50/70 and a 
L100/110 power supply, you couldn't tell the difference between them, both 
are 15V 2.5A DC switchmode.

I've had considerable success with just using one of those 2 pin connectors 
that links the motherboard to those lights on the front of your desktop 
computer (they're rated at about 1.5A I think, certainly the one I've been 
using hasn't been getting warm or threatening to melt) ... I just used a 
knife to shave perhaps 0.5mm off either edge, glued a thin strip of plastic 
to one face so that it won't fit in upside down then used that ... that, 
plus a $40AUD ($20USD) switchmode 3 to 24 volt selectable 2 amp power 
supply I picked up on special at the local computer store, has been 
charging and running my libby about 3/4 of the time for the last month (I 
leave my original at work now and use this one to charge my libby 
overnight) ...
