When I get out of my car I want to be able to press the computer power button that makes the computer go into Hibernation and automaticaly shutdown after. But I dont want to have to stay and wait for it to shut down then turn the power inverter off. Any suggestions?

Hunter,
check out my autoshutdown device. It may be what you are looking for. http://www.dschmidt.com/autooff.html
My problem is I want to press the button on the computer which sends a command to the computer to go into hibernation and then shutdown. But I want to be able to have the Power Inverter shut off after the computer shuts down. I was thinking of the timer in the Radio Shack catalog that can do automatic stops power form the power line in a certain amount of time after the buttoin on it is pressed. I think I will try this. So when I get out of my car I just hit two buttons and the computer shuts down and the timer begins. Then when I get in the car press the copmputer button and the timer off button so it will open the circuit/Power to the inverter. Any comments or suggestions?
Will your shutdown controller work with a dc-ac power invertor like most people use to power the computer?
My shutdown controller gives you a controlled +12V output using its on board 30A relay.
Take that output, feed it to your DC to DC converter, OR feed it to your DC-AC inverter. It doesn't matter.
