Blimey, your laptop draws lot of current so I suppose it is not going to work well, to higher risk of overheating. My and my wifes laptop only draw 3.3A.

The PSU(Power Supply Unit) primary design suggests a laptop but like any PSU it will work on anything else. I sell these as I have a whoesale account with Jaycars supplier for a number of Grey Nomad that need assistance with listening system while travelling.

It can be used for anything that has a DC power input as long as it can handle the current.

I think your only alternative is a DC-DC inverter. I am preparing my car with 80AH sealed LA batteries with a 750W inverter to supply other item. I would still use the laptop PSU to supply the laptop as the efficiency will be better.
