Laptop Power
I have an old toshiba satellite that I use for tuning megasquirt. The battery is pretty fubared and I wondered the following
Given that the output of the adapter/charger/mains cable is 15 volts and 3 amps do the collective brains on here think that it would work at say 14
voltsdc i.e when the car is being charged??
I know I could fit up an invertor but I could do it this way much cheaper and with less cables flailing about using bit and bobs I have lying around
at work.
So lets discuss

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

I run an old IBM T21 thinkpad straight off the car battery no problem running or not.

Yep, the only issue could be it may feck the battery. So no issue at all in this case...
