I have a car battery power unit for my Toshiba T-5100, and have used a
similar unit with a Toshiba T-1000SE and T-1200HB.  I find that I like 
to have an extension cord available, so that I can sit outside the car
(at a picnic table, for example) and use the computer, but otherwise
I haven't had any trouble with any of these set-ups.  They work
well.
