    OK, just ordered carnetix psu. hope it works as good as stated

    Just ordered the carnetix 1900 psu for my laptop. I didn't want to use the laptop's battery (for several personal reasons, one being risk of explosion, reliability of nimh batteries, etc). It will hopefully be here tomorrow (they have been out of stock all week) as I opted for next day delivery. Does anyone have any experience dealing with the store at mp3car.com? How fast do they ship normally?

    The store here is on top of things. If you opted for next day, I'm sure it will get here next day, depending on when you placed the order.

    btw - I wouldn't worry too much about the laptop battery exploding on you...

    I've had a P1900 in my car for over a year now. Works great.

    Should I run a seperate power cord from the battery, or can I patch into the power wire from the factory amp? I'm power a carnetixs to an hp laptop w/1.1ghz duron cpu mobile. Also, is there something I need to set to make it start the computer when the key turns on? My laptop will not automatically "power on after power failure" so the power supply will need to strobe the power switch.
