Good-day I bought an Inverter

Good-day I bought an Inverter was created by 928mac
Some of you know that I have an electromotive ECM running my car and I can tune on the fly with a laptop.
The nice thing about this is I can turn down the fuel when going on a long drive and collect on the mileage.
The pita is that the laptop does not last more then a few hours.
So I stopped by the computer store and asked if they had an adaptor for the car to run a laptop, they did.

the cool thing is if you look at the chart, it will even run a blender ha ha ha
Some may ask if the alternator will keep up?
My answer is, one of the first things I installed was the 200 amp alternator.
I thought I would need it to run the stereo and sub.

Good thing it will run a blender...otherwise you would be stuck with Mexican Martini's instead of a TRUE frozen Margarita while you are driving! The frozen ones are SO MUCH easier to work with while driving!

Be careful Brad that the power spikes from the alternator do not reach the laptop and theres protection in the inverter.
Hard to put the smoke back in those machines
