I think you're confusing a few things here, such as the ratio test, and its application to power series to determine radius of convergence.
The ratio test is stated here with liminfs and limsups:
Consider an infinite series $\sum c_n$ and let
\begin{align}
L &= \limsup_{n\to\infty} \frac{|c_{n+1}|}{|c_n|}, \\
l &= \liminf_{n\to\infty} \frac{|c_{n+1}|}{|c_n|}.
\end{align}
If $L < 1$ then $\sum c_n$ converges. If $l > 1$, then $\sum c_n$ diverges.
For a general series $\sum c_n$, "radius of convergence" doesn't make sense; you really need a power series, depending on some variable $x$. The ratio test is good for determining the radius of convergence of power series. Applying the ratio test to power series,
Consider a power series $\sum a_n x^n$ and let
\begin{align}
L &= \limsup_{n\to\infty} \frac{|a_{n+1}|}{|a_n|}, \\
l &= \liminf_{n\to\infty} \frac{|a_{n+1}|}{|a_n|}.
\end{align}
If $R$ is the radius of convergence, then $\frac{1}{L} \le R \le \frac{1}{l}$.
Obviously, when the limit exists, then this gives you exactly the radius of convergence, but when there's a disparity between the limsup and liminf, then you get an interval of possible radii.
In particular, note that the test does not suggest that $\limsup_{n\to\infty} \frac{|a_{n+1}|}{|a_n|} = 1$ implies that the radius of $\sum a_n x^n$ is $1$, only that the radius is at least $1$. For a specific counterexample, consider the series
$$\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n x^n = 1 + x + \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{2}x^3 + \frac{1}{4}x^4 + \frac{1}{4}x^5 + \frac{1}{8}x^6 + \frac{1}{8}x^7 + \ldots$$
Note that $\frac{|a_{n+1}|}{|a_n|} = 1$ for all even $n$, but is $\frac{1}{2}$ for odd $n$. This tells us that the radius of convergence is somewhere between $1$ and $2$. We can further see that the radius is actually $\sqrt{2}$, because
$$\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n x^n = (1 + x)\left(1 + \frac{1}{2}x^2 + \frac{1}{4}x^4 + \frac{1}{8}x^6 + \ldots\right),$$
noting that the series in the parentheses is geometric and hence converges whenever $\frac{x^2}{2} < 1$.

You have the right ideas, but your proof could use just a little tweaking. Let $L = \limsup |a_{n+1}/a_n|$. If $L < 1$, then for $\epsilon := (1 - L)/2$, there exists $N\in \Bbb N$ such that $|a_{n+1}/a_n| < L + \epsilon$ for all $n\ge N$, i.e., $|a_{n+1}| < |a_n|(1+L)/2$ for all $n \ge N$. Thus $|a_n| \le [(1 + L)/2]^{n-N}|a_N|$ for all $n\ge N$. Since $L < 1$, $(1 + L)/2 < 1$, thus $\sum_{n = 1}^\infty [(1 + L)/2]^{n-N}$ converges. Hence, by the comparison test, $\sum_{n = 1}^\infty a_n$ converges absolutely.
