I have a pavillion zt1135 that is over three years old. The original battery won't take a charge anymore. The pc ran fine from the ac adapter with the dead battery in it or even no battery. The AC power adapter it came with provides 19VDC @ 3950mA. You can run the laptop in your car using an inverter and the AC supply, or get a DC car power supply that is made to be compatible with your pc (about $100). A replacement battery cost me about $100 (last summer).

your lappy model # and you can find sources and pricing for the parts you might need.
