Well I went & got the bigger one.
Puts out 8amps at 15v.

Hooked it all up & it works a treat.
With the lappy set on "Full Power" & no battery inserted,
- While booting up it was drawing just on 4amps.
- While running The Sky 6 it was drawing 2amps.
- With the lappy shut down & the battery inserted (effectivly charging the battery) it was drawing approx 1.8amps.


The scope on full slew & with all the heaters working draws about 2.5amps.
So with the lappy set down to minimum pwr usage & the scope as well I should be drawing around the 4amps max.

So with the 2 x 100ah batteries I should get at least 25 to 30hrs of good power.

It's all coming together......
