<<JIM>> Good put. I've never thought about 2 marine batts. Between work/home/airports, during traveling DVD's really chew up stock laptop batts. A co-worker tried to take one of those small 12volt lantern batts on an airplane once. They wouldn't let a wet cell on board. (and it was heavy) We all laughed and told him to get one of the newer gel cells. Usually we just find some unsuspecting 120 volt outlet and plug in to recharge. Boeing planes have an optional electrical outlet for laptops, but airlines seem to be slow to add or referb to offer it. ps. Fried a p-200 mother board last week, but that was due to static electricity.

We can pull the plug on my wife's laptop while it's running and there's no consequence. FWIW: I use a UPS on my own computer that has 2 RV/Marine batteries attached, replacing the 2 smaller 12-volt batteries that were inside the unit. <<Jim>> Kimm Flatt wrote: > > - > For those with lap tops using park electric hookup with questionable > voltage, maybe a UPS is an option?
