Why does my laptop keep ruining chargers?

A few weeks ago my laptop charger stopped working. I took it to the software store, they determind the charger was bad (by using that electric voltage tester). So I bought another one and the laptop charged fine. Then last night I noticed the battery was low and I went to plug in the new charger and got nothing.Now it won't charge again. The battery has been replaced recently as wellCould my laptop be doing something to ruin the chargers? Any ideas?

O sweet lord that keeps happenning to me too! Honestly i dont know but i guess it overheats too much :o
95% of the time, it's carelessness on the users part. The wires get broken from not plugging them into the pc or unplugging them properly, the jacks get broken because people don't carefully plug them in and unplug them correctly. Then you always have the dimwit who doesn't get a good connection and wiggles it around til he has the jack completely broke.
Are you using OEM chargers? A laptop will pull a specific amount of power, if the charger is not rated to handle the charge being pulled, it will get burned out. While it may cost a little bit more to buy a certified charger from the manufacturer, you are actually going to save money by not having to buy other chargers, as well as reducing the substantial risk of damaging your laptop.
