6982, PC power supply dc-to-dc
Posted by etx, Aug-18-03 11:32 AM
Hey guys. I'm installing a pc in my Z and I am curious if anyone has done this in thier car. I really want a dc-to-dc power supply, power inverters can really destroy your cars elecrical system! Anyways i really want one that will monitor the ignition and send the atx shutdown signal when the car is shut off. I know Opus makes one but it is $200, thats just insane. Anyone know of a good car psu?!

If you want one that does what you say, then OPUS is the answer. Its worth the money in the long run. you can set it autoshut down the carputer after 10 sec, 10 minutes, etc. after the ignition is turned off. Its really worth the money, trust me.

EPIA also makes a DC-DC PS but it doenst have as many features.

Hit me up on IM sometime if you have any more questions about it.
