Search Ebay for HP part number "F1064A". They often can be found for under $15 including Shipping. These are great DC-DC converts and produce a solid 12v out with a wide range of in (ala 10v --> 16v). use one of these to power my LCD display.I am a bit disappointed in the Targus adapters, they do not hold up as
The HP adapter which seems rock solid. REPLY Jim, when Statpower was sold to Xantrex we got moved to new corporate offices. a great deal of past product developments and samples were tossed. Among them were "golden samples" of HP power adaptors for use in cars. Statpower had been building them for HP as house branded HP products. Needless to say I scooped a lot of stuff out of the dumpster. <grin>All of them still work. Perfectly good working equipment but something that did not fit with Xantrex's corporate product lineup. I have no idea who is now building them but a good guess would be either China or India. cheers Arild _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://www.liveaboardnow.org/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardnow.org/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
