Car Inverter - saan maganda bumili

[Javoy]

Sa Concorde meron din, may 500 watts pa nga sila. Kaya lang, di ko nasilip yung price, mukhang mini-amp nga, silver ang color.

I believe na yung mga mataas na wattage like 500 watts, walang pang cigarette lighter na saksakan. Direct clip sa battery lang ang available. I bought a 200 watt version at DIY for 3,500 last year at the height of the Millenio Typhoon. Worked very well to charge my handphones and notebook computer during the 5 day brownout. Got carried away though and plugged in a small tv set shorting out my fuse sa escape.

Boybi, those small inverters usually have very low watt capability.

Kung cellphone charger siguro ubra yang maliit na yan. Pero I doubt kung kaya nyan ang laptop.

In my own experience go for 300w - i can use it for my laptop and celphone charger at the same time (merun ako dati na 2 ang outlet220v and 1 outlet na 110v) and the other unit (from alaxan) ay nilagyan ko lang ng octopus connector para pedeng 3 devices ang pede kong i-plug.

Price range P2500-3500

CDR-King is also selling one with 100w, 300w at 500w models. Price is much cheaper...yung 500w nila parang P3500 yata. Pero I haven't tried it yet.

May nakita ako kanina sa DIY shop dito. Same nung sa nai-post kong image above, pero e&e ang brand. 175W ang rating nya. P1599 lang ang price. Ok kaya ito? Kaya na kaya nito magcharge ng laptop?

Ito ang specs ng adaptor ng laptop ko:
Input: 100-240V 50-60Hz 1.6A
Output: 18.5V 3.5A

Ilang watts ang requirement nito?

if I remember it correctly P=IV, where P is the power in watts, I Amprere rating and V is voltage (hindi ako sure dito) pero lalabas it would be 160-384watts.

It may or may not work for your laptop...pero sa celphone charger ubra yan.

best thing to do, dalhin ang laptop sa store at dun itest ng matagal, gamit gamitin din ang laptop with heavy HD and DVD access simultaneously, wag bilhin pag alanganin kasi pag bumigay yan (kung electronic yari) wala atang warranty kc china ang iba

Kung 175W ang rating nito, mukhang hindi uubra sa laptop. Dapat at least 400W rating ang kunin ko.

Inverters din ang gamit namin sa ambulance to operate medical equipment. Pero malalaki yung gamit namin. Parang yung malalaking AVR ng computer ang style. Directly wired sa battery.

Kung sa sedan, baka trunk mounted na yun tapos extension cord na lang.

Pero may mga inverter sa ACE and Raon na sinlaki lang ng sound system amplifier. Kasya sa ilalim ng upuan, etc.

if you want a power supply for your laptop that you can just plug into you ciggaret lighter outlet.. there are some available for less than 1000 pesos.. unfortunately its only for laptops.. anyways i would think it would be alot cheaper to buy a inverter at Raon...

18.5 x 3.5 = 64.75 watts

with typical adaptor efficiency at 80%, your laptop would require some 80 watts of AC power ... a 100 watt inverter should be sufficient and a 300 watter should have no problem

just be carefull using the lighter socket as this is usually protected by a 15A fuse, which means you can only extract at most 12 x 15 = 180 watts from it

I will also be using it for charging other gadgets, like cellphones, PDAs, GPS, etc.
