Found this nice 12 volt charger for my pc. Just make a search on ebay or amazon for "car charger and your pc brand", and you should find one for your pc as well.
For all of you. Read what is written on label on bottom of the laptop. If label says 19V and 2.2A then means it can be charged with output of 19V (must be the same - not more, not less), and 2.2A (the same or above, not less).

fixed that

I'm about to build one for my 19.5v laptop. It is laughingly super simple, I just need to buy 200W Boost converter, with output voltage adjustable using mini potentiometer, so basically ANY laptop's different voltage (12, 19, 19.5, 20v) can be catered. The input voltage range is between 10-32V. You can just search the boost converter module in online markets (aliexpress, ebay etc). Yes, it is not a ready product, you need to build a box and add cables but it isreally so simple, probably a 1-3 hours of weekend project.
Sounds excellent 👌
Simple old school = more reliable
12 to 19v is way more efficient.
You can also use new PD usbc 20v but more of hit miss and more complex delicate cable. Most PD plugs don't seem to boost from 12v to 20v.
If you read fine print, they need 24v to do 20v seems like they are buck only.
Better show what is inside. I'm afraid that this can easily fry Your laptop
What is the minimum DC voltage that can power a laptop with the car adapter ?
thank you !
I am watching this while my computer is at 5 percent, and I'm sitting in the car lmao.
Excellent 😀
Universal charger for many laptops? 18.5V ( if laptop requires 20 it will still charge ) and universal amperage 4.5. It is somewhere between 83 and 85W and completely doesn't matter if your laptop requires more or less, it takes how much it needs of course if it is not a gaming laptop and your need is not to game on it while charging, you are completely good to go without any harm or damage. You can still charge a gaming laptop but can't game on it while charging because the voltage will drop due to CC methode and laptop will stop charging. It's not a bad idea but the most worst idea is using buck/boost converter in a 24V system. If you plug a laptop first and then 24V, there is a big big very big chance that the buck/boost converter will pass through 24V for a short time ( each chinesse brands are different ) and you can potentially burn a charging IC logics. For 12V is completely safe, if a converter pass through 12V nothing will happen. For 24V system, plug a converter first, then a laptop and for the extra more safetyness, you can add a volt meter to be 100% sure that the converter outputs exactly what you've set it at.
The output is only powered up when the controller decides to do so. There should be no problem leaving the device plugged in.
You seem like the right person to ask I'm setting up a solar setup for camping without much experience. I have bought an dc to ac inverter similar to the one you have in the video. On the instruction manual it says that the inverter needs to be grounded but I see you're running yours without a ground maybe? I think I might return the dc to ac inverter and just get a charger like the one you mention if that's the case. It would be handy though to run ac while camping.
Do you mean the inverter housing? Ground is the same as minus. Make sure you use thick wires from the inverter to the battery!
@@Italjohn yeah the inverter housing thank you.
@@PatrickJFurther I'm not sure why you should need to ground the housing, could be to minimize electrical noise?
Laptop computers runs on 5vdc. inside there is an electronic circuit inside that takes the input voltage and converts it to 5vdc. If you plug a laptop directly into a cigarette lighter with the correct polarity to the computer, that built in circuit will change the 13.8 vdc from your cigarette lighter to 5vdc. You do not need a converter to change 12vdc to 115vac and then plug inverter to change the 115vac to 5vdc for your laptop.
Nono
Laptops usually have a 14.8v battery tho... not sure what 5vdc has anything to do with this...
Digital circuitry runs on 5 volts DC. Whatever the battery puts out, if it isn't 5 volts, it is converted to 5vdc. What the battery requires as an input to charge depends on the battery technology used.
good idea ..if it has clean power..a full cycle..
Do you think it's safe? I'm a little bit worried about plugging a $1000 laptop to a $14 charger.
Well, that's a good question, and you can never know. You will just have to take your chances 😀
@@Italjohn 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why 7 thumbs down ? truth be told i was going to be 8th thumbs down. judging video before i actually saw it. i was blown away with your equipment. I'm the 127th thumbs up. ebay link did show others. i don't like the inverters having to create and waste energy just so laptop drops it down. your DC to DC adapter very nice.
Good buy
Thank you:)
Hei, bra info.
Jeg lurer på en ting.
Det at den bør lade maks styrke opptil 80% og så lavere opptil ca 95% og så puls-lade, ligger det i laderen eller er det i laptopen?
Tenker på at hvis man lar den lade i 10 timer, vil det kunne ødelegge batteriet?
Heisann. Jeg er ikke helt sikker på dette selv, men vil tro at ladekontrollen ligger inne i maskinen, og ikke i lader.
@@Italjohn Ok, ja jeg mistenker det selv :)
Yeah using the converter seem counter-intuitive. Imagine changing DC to AC, then to DC back again.
Will it work if the watts output from the universal charger was less than the normal laptop watt output?
It's hard for me to tell, but I think it will work, but with a litle slower charging rate. In worst case it will not work and maybe burn out.
I have a challenge! I have 2nd hand laptop and battery is dead. How can I run it from 2x12v batteries connected in series =24v?
The AC 240v (UK) charger output is 19v DC)
So I need something to change 24v into 19v
I am a total beginner and it's going on a boat one day.
I have no idea, sorry 😐
Where do you buy this? Google search turned up nothing like it.

mine says 7A-125V laptop is Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series what should I do the batteries tag is not readable now.
Look here: www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313&_nkw=car+charger+Dell+Inspiron+15+5000&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&_odkw=car+charger+Dell+Inspiron++15
But thats the actual charger what I need is an extension inside the car? So I can charge multiple devices.
2 years later, the charger/laptop still working ?
Well, thats a good question I can't answer, as I have not used it yet. Sorry to let you down.
@@Italjohn After installing that 120W socket in the van, I've start searching for 12v charges reviews and your video shows up on top results. 🙂
Just wanted to be sure if worth the money or not. To be honest, I'm a bit sceptical, but will be nice to not depend on inverter anymore. ✌️
dose this weaking or kill you battery or drop it down to 5volts from a 13v charged suv/car battery?
Hi Travis. It will drain your battery some how. With a 2,3A drawn from a let's say 80Ah battery in good conditiion, it should last approx 30 hours. But then again a standard lead acid battery should never be discharged below 50%, so a more realistic charge should be 15 hours.
In car really doesnt matter, but in cabin with solar panels inverter is bad
Does it work with a 24 volts battery system in lorries?
That's a good question. It says 12 to 16 volt, so I don't think it will work properly on 24 volt.
thank you for this video. i just subscribed because you give us the same idea i start working about it. charge my pc in the car.
I hope you can help me, or any one have any idea, i buy BASEUS MAGIC 45W(smart car charger, out put 5v=4.5A-12v=3A-20v=2.25A). but when i try connect my pc with this charger, not working.i use cable + and -
Thanks for the comment. Sounds like you have the correct charger, but it's hard for me to tell why it don't work. Do you have a link for it so I can see it?
@@Italjohn THANK YOU very much for your fast reply, this link for it www.tvc-mall.com/details/baseus-magic-series-pps-digital-display-type-c-pd-qc-intelligent-dual-quick-charging-car-charger-45w-blue-rose-sku810800470b.html

@@Achabab I think you have bought a wrong charger, as it will not deliver 15-20 volts unless you have a 24 volt input. I would recommend this one: UK: amzn.to/2Z4EiCl USA: amzn.to/2TOXKNC
can i charge my eavy gaming laptop which has a 200 watt power adapter
I don't know. You will have to search for power adapter for your computer on Amazon or eBay
Did you find out? I'm looking to power my gaming laptop too
Hi Italjohn13
I have HP G5 Notebook pc
inpot :19v , 2.13A
will this adapter work for me?
thanks a lot
It all depend on the plug that goes into the pc. I can't really tell, so please search eBay/Amazon for your model.
@@Italjohn ok, thanks for the replay, god bless
