Subject: Tech: Laptop and Car Battery?
Just wondering if we would be able to take a laptop computer when we are in the caravan and run it from the spare 12 volt battery.
Does anybody know anything about the practicality of such a thing. The laptop mains transformer input is higher than 12 volt (I think it's about 19v), so it would presumably need some sort of step-up transformer. Do they sell anything designed for the job.
Thanks in advance for any useful comments.
Quack!
