Re: Power your Classmate PC with this cable

Hmm... wouldn't it be more efficient (not having to deal with the AC->DC->AC conversion) to keep it DC?

One end has the same battery connector, the other has the barrel connector for plugging in directly to the laptop. In the middle, all you need is a simple 12v->20v converter, which is a little bit of circuitry: http://english.cxem.net/car/car4.php
