Mascom International stocks the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery at KSh 2,400, a brand new 10.8V lithium-ion replacement pack ready for collection or delivery. The Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery also replaces packs labelled PA3534U and PA3535U, which Toshiba fitted to the same laptops. It suits older Satellite A200, A210, A300, A350 and A500 models, the Satellite L300, L450, L500 and L550 ranges, the Satellite M200 and the Equium A200 and A210. The shop sits on the first floor of the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, where you can compare the pack with your old one.
Designed for people who keep an older Satellite in daily service, the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery suits small business owners, accountants, secondary school teachers and university students at Kenyatta and Moi. These laptops still handle email, Word, Excel and eCitizen forms well, yet many now die the second the adapter is pulled. That turns a portable machine into one stuck beside a single wall socket, and any KPLC blackout ends the session without warning. Fitting a Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery restores portable use, so the laptop moves between office, home and classroom again.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell batteries by guesswork, Mascom International reads the part code with you before payment. Send a WhatsApp photo of the label on the old Toshiba PA3533U or PA3534U pack, or carry the laptop to the counter so the team can check the fit. Buyers throughout Kenya report that this simple step stops them paying for a pack that will not connect. Order the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery now and pay on arrival, wherever you are in the country, or visit the shop and confirm the match yourself.
Common Questions About the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery
What is the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery price in Kenya?
Mascom International sells the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery for KSh 2,400, brand new, at its Kimathi Street shop in Nairobi CBD. The price buys the battery with a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. No charger comes with it, and fitting labour is not part of the price, though staff will check the fit if you bring the laptop in. Orders from outside Nairobi travel on pay-on-arrival terms, so you inspect the pack and its label before handing over any money.
Which Toshiba laptops take the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery?
The Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery fits the Satellite A200, A205, A210, A215, A300, A305, A350 and A500 series. It also suits the Satellite L300, L305, L450, L455, L500, L505, L550 and L555, the Satellite M200 and M205, and the Equium A200 and A210. These were common 15-inch home and office laptops in Kenya. The model sticker under your laptop helps, but the code on the old battery is the surest guide to a correct match.
Is the PA3534U battery the same as the PA3533U?
Yes, the PA3534U and PA3533U codes describe the same 10.8V pack shape and connector, so the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery replaces either one. The full list also covers PA3533U-1BRS, PA3533U-1BAS, PA3534U-1BRS, PA3534U-1BAS, PA3535U-1BRS, PA3682U-1BRS, PA3727U-1BRS, PABAS097, PABAS098 and PABAS099. Toshiba changed codes as it updated the laptops, not the battery's fit. A label showing any of these numbers means the pack will slide into your laptop.
How does the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery compare with the Toshiba PA3536U Laptop Battery?
The two are both 10.8V Toshiba packs, but they fit different laptops and cannot swap. The Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery suits the 15-inch Satellite A200, A300, L300 and L500 families, while the Toshiba PA3536U Laptop Battery fits the larger 17-inch Satellite P200, X200 and L350 machines. The PA3536U costs KSh 3,200, or KSh 800 more. Choose by the code on your old pack. If the label says PA3533U, PA3534U or PA3535U, this cheaper battery is the right one.
Can the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery handle a daily matatu commute and Nairobi dust?
Yes, the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery sits inside the laptop's base, protected by a hard casing, so normal bag travel on a matatu or boda boda does no harm. Dust is the bigger risk to the laptop's fan and vents, which can overheat the battery if they clog. Wipe the vents every few weeks during the dry season. Never leave the bag in a hot car on Mombasa Road or Thika Road at midday, because heat ages lithium-ion cells faster than use.
Is it worth putting a new battery in an old Satellite A200 or L500 in Kenya?
Yes, if the laptop still boots quickly and the screen, keyboard and hinges are sound, because KSh 2,400 restores portability for far less than another laptop. The Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery makes most sense for basic work such as documents, browsing, M-Pesa statements and KRA iTax returns. It makes less sense if the hard drive is failing or Windows crawls. Have the team at Mascom International look over the laptop first if you are unsure whether the battery is the only fault.
Who should buy the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery, and who should skip it?
Buy the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery if your Satellite A-series, L-series, M200 or Equium shows one of the matching codes and only the battery has worn out. Skip it if your laptop is a 17-inch Satellite P200, X200 or L350, which needs the Toshiba PA3536U Laptop Battery instead. Skip it too if the laptop still dies with the adapter plugged in, since that usually points to a charging fault rather than the battery.
Will the laptop recognise the Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery straight away?
Yes, a compatible pack is recognised as soon as it clicks into the bay and the Toshiba adapter is connected. The Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery may show a low charge out of the package, so plug in and let it reach full before working unplugged. The battery icon can take a few charge cycles to read the level accurately. If the laptop shows "not charging" after an hour on a working adapter, contact Mascom International on WhatsApp for help.
Technical Specifications
Cell and Capacity
- 10.8V nominal voltage, the level these Toshiba laptops expect, so charging and power readings stay correct from the first day.
- Lithium-ion cells with no memory effect, meaning short top-ups between lectures or meetings do not reduce the usable capacity.
- Brand new cells in a new housing, not a recelled old pack, so performance starts at the pack's full rated level.
- Rated capacity is printed on the pack label; ask on WhatsApp if you need the exact figure before ordering.
- Enough stored energy to carry an older Satellite through a power cut while you save work and close programs properly.
Compatibility and Model Matching
- Replaces Toshiba codes PA3533U-1BRS, PA3533U-1BAS, PA3534U-1BRS, PA3534U-1BAS and PA3535U-1BRS, read from the label on your old battery.
- Also replaces PA3682U-1BRS, PA3727U-1BRS, PABAS097, PABAS098 and PABAS099, codes Toshiba used on later versions of the same laptops.
- Fits Satellite A200, A205, A210, A215, A300, A305, A350 and A500 series laptops, covering most suffix variants within each series.
- Fits Satellite L300, L305, L450, L455, L500, L505, L550 and L555, plus the Satellite M200, M205 and Equium A200 and A210.
- Will not fit 17-inch Satellite P200, X200 or L350 models, or the 14.4V packs used by the older Satellite L10 range.
Build and Safety
- Rigid plastic shell shaped like the original pack, sitting flush with the laptop base so it does not wobble or catch.
- Protection circuitry, standard in lithium-ion laptop packs, cuts power if the cells are overcharged, overheated or short-circuited.
- Label lists the voltage and part code, so you can match it against your old battery side by side at the counter.
- Charges inside the laptop through the normal Toshiba adapter, with no external charger or docking cradle required.
- Heat is the main enemy of battery life, so keep the laptop off beds and cushions that block the cooling vents.
Charging and Care
- Charge to full on the original adapter before the first unplugged session, then use the laptop as you normally would.
- Plug in whenever convenient; topping up from half charge does no harm to lithium-ion cells.
- If the laptop will sit unused for weeks, store the battery at about half charge in a cool, shaded place.
- Remove and stop using any battery that swells, turns hot to the touch or smells unusual, and have it checked by a technician.
- Lower screen brightness and switch off Wi-Fi when not needed to stretch runtime on battery power.
Inclusions
- One brand new Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery, ready for a matching Satellite A-series, L-series, M200 or Equium laptop.
- No laptop charger in the package; compatible Toshiba adapters are sold separately at Mascom International when the old one has failed.
- Fitting labour is not included in the price, but staff will check the fit when you bring the laptop.
- These laptops take a removable battery that latches into the underside, so most owners can swap it without tools.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery gives you the chance to read the code on the label before paying for the pack.
Package Contents
Inside the package you will find one brand new Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery and nothing more. It comes without a charger, power cord or tool kit. Owners whose Toshiba adapter has also stopped working can buy a compatible laptop adapter separately at Mascom International. The price does not include fitting, yet if you bring the laptop to our Kimathi Street counter, the team will check that the pack seats properly and the charge light comes on.
Warranty
The Toshiba PA3533U Laptop Battery carries a 6-month warranty from Mascom International covering manufacturing defects under normal use, for example a pack that the laptop does not detect or that refuses to charge. To claim, bring the battery and proof of purchase to our service desk in Nairobi CBD.
