Toshiba Rant

Well if the battery fit and doesn't charge/work, you might have a bigger problem than a bad battery. Typically, manufacturers make sure batteries that aren't compatible, just physically won't fit.

Failed charging circuits are a common failure I see. Hope that isn't the case for you.

Let us know how the atbatt unit works.

I have no reservations about buying 3rd party laptop batteries from Amazon. I don't buy the most expensive and certainly not the cheapest. I look for quite a few reviews - 50+ and so far so good. I'm pretty sure HP, Dell, Lenovo and the rest don't make their own batteries.
