Guest guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Hey everyone, As I continue on trying to find a way to run a computer fully on 12V DC, I keep hitting blocks. The hardest one is trying to find an external monitor that can accept 12V DC power - the PC itself isn't an issue to find - either a laptop, or a mini, fanless system. However, if I had a mini, fanless system, I would still need a monitor, which would have to be run with AC power, or an outrageously priced 12V LCD designed for cars and boats, and I'm not able to drop one or two thousand bucks on a ten inch screen! So, if I can't find a way around that, it might mean a laptop. Unfortunately, laptops, from what I've heard, can have pretty bad emissions. Better on battery, of course. Still, probably not that good, though, at the distance you use them at. I could help this by using an external keyboard and mouse, but the screen on a laptop is smaller, so I can't sit as far away from it. So! - I need to know if anyone knows of anybody who can do a really good job of shielding a laptop, from escaping magnetic, electric, and RF fields. I think, quite some time ago, I read on either emfrefugee, or , of someone who was very happy with the work a company in Europe did on their laptop - they were quite sensitive, and were fine with the system after the modifications. Anyone know who/what I mean? Or are there any other people you might recommend, if the laptop route is the way to go? (I have looked at the really small web notebook type computers, but the battery life seems crappy, and they may not be fast enough to do some of what I do - audio and photo work). Thanks!
