Did the battery LED on each laptop glow orange when each laptop was charged? I hope you powered the laptop off before charging (not just put in sleep mode by closing top.
I do not understand why you did not use the correct adapter that came with each laptop. The basic problem is while the adapter may seem to work the first time you tried it, over time the components on the circuit boards would degrade and prematurely fail. The same problem can come from the wrong type of inverter being used.
When dry-camping I run the laptop on it's battery, and only recharge when running the MH's generator and having the adapter plugged into 120v,ac, with the computer turned off and allowed to fully recharge.
The old Kindle Fire, and new Kindle Fire 9.5HD are charged in the same fashion.
