Carlos, et al -- ...and then Carlos E. R. said... % % No, I mean technically. Where to find the convertors and the rest of the % hardware, how to design it... and of course, calculate costs and savings. [snip] Try some marine & cruising lists. My dad lives on a boat and uses DC-DC to power his [desktop] computer, monitor, TV, USB hard drives, and more; that's a very boat-ish and RV-ish thing to do. I have my doubts about whether, for someone with essentially an unlimited power budget compared to the limited house battery on a boat, the power and heat savings will outpace the cost of components for anyone other than the technical hobbyist able to assemble from parts. The other thing about living on a boat is that it's expensive :-) Good luck! :-D -- David T-G See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/email/ See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/tofu.txt -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
