If your laptop suddenly runs out of power in the car, this is not a reason to stop working or communicating on the network. Modern chargers can help extend battery life or fully charge your computer.
It is necessary
- - 12V adapter;
- - car charger for laptops;
- - autonomous starting and charging device.
Instructions
Step 1
Use a dedicated 12V to 220V adapter (available at auto parts stores). Such an adapter is inserted into the car's cigarette lighter and has outputs for charging a laptop, telephone, portable DVD-player, shaver. The average power of the adapter is 150 W. Choose an adapter that has overload protection. The disadvantage of this method is that while charging the laptop, the ignition must be turned on. This means that you can charge the computer only with the engine running, because with such power, the car battery very quickly sits down.
Step 2
If you only plan to charge your laptop in the car, purchase a dedicated car charger. But the charging must be special, suitable for your computer model. To choose the right adapter, you need to know the following parameters of your computer: power connector, how many Volts and Amps are on the factory power supply. Look for a charger with the same amount of Volts as on the power supply. Ampere can be more, it's not scary. The main thing is not less, otherwise the load on the power supply will increase. It is advisable to purchase a charging adapter from the same manufacturer as the laptop. But keep in mind that not all brands have their own car chargers.
Step 3
Pay attention to a novelty among car accessories - an autonomous starter and charger. A small box weighing 400 grams and the size of a tablet can charge a car battery without the help of an outside car. The device only needs to be charged from a 220V network for 3 hours. The charger kit contains adapters for phones and a USB output. The device can support the autonomous operation of the laptop for 3 hours, charge the phone in just one hour. Moreover, it does not need to be connected to the cigarette lighter.
