Solve : using laptop in car?

Answer»

I have an OLD laptop I plan to use delorme gps software just use as a GPS in my motorhome and was wondering if I could HOOK it up with a 12v car plug instead of going through a 12v dc - 120v ac inverter the computer says 15v dc underneath any help would be apreciated mgw318Does this help: GPS and Your Windows XP-based LaptopI believe his question was more geared towards what type of power source he could or couldn't use while in the car. However, the link you provided Soybean may be of some help. To ANSWER your question mgw318 I don't believe it would be possible to run a laptop with a 12v car plug because of the voltage and current DIFFERENCES. I highly recommend you use the power converter designed for your laptop and/or a universal converter.
