On the road, a Dell laptop's AC-to-DC adaptor is powered by a 75W inverter plugged into the car's cigarette lighter recepticle. Is there any way aboard a small boat (using Radio Shack parts) a direct power supply from 12v deep cycle battery to computer can be rigged up without utilizing the inverter and the charging capabilities of the Dell power brick? Default DC to the computer is 19.5V - 3.34A
