At anchor I leave a netbook running as an anchor alarm. This uses 11 watts from my 110 volt inverter. Since it is the only AC current running during the night I am planning on powering the netbook with a 12 volt adapter thus allowing the inverter to go into sleep mode.
I don't have a DC equivalent of a Kill-O-Watt and am unable to determine the DC draw the netbook will take.
I think I know the answer but would appreciate someone who is confident to advise what the conversion would be so that I can know what the draw will be over 8 hours in DC amps. Yes I live at anchor and power and water usage are major concerns at all times.
Thanks
