Many people wonder how to power a TV with a car battery. It's actually easier than you may think. Powering your home TV from the 12-volt lighter socket in your car, truck or RV is possible. Since the home TV uses AC (alternating current) power and the vehicle produces DC (direct current) power which is stored in the battery, a power inverter is required to produce the type of power used by your television.
Don't worry, we're about to eliminate all of the guess-work of deciding which is the best power inverter for your car.

Laptops have made working away from the home or office more convenient for everyone. Taking a business trip or vacation can now be done without much worry of who will do your work while you're traveling. Simply pack up the laptop and hit the road. The main problem you will have is the battery life of the laptop. A laptop battery will only hold a charge for a couple of hours, and if you are in your car or truck traveling you will notice it is very difficult to find a wall outlet in your vehicle. RV's on the other hand do have 110V outlets, but can only be used with a hookup to shore power or while running the generator.
The first thought that comes to a persons mind is to find a power cord that can plug straight into the laptop from the lighter socket
