Power inverter for laptops?

[bodach]

Hi would like to know if its safe to use a power Inverter (Vector 700 watt) for laptops while on the road would hate to fry them out of ignorance. Thank You

Sure. Just as long as the inverter doesn't die. I'd test it on a lamp or something first.

Should be. The laptop power bricks are pretty rugged. They'll mostly take anything from around 100 - 250 volts from 50 Hz to 400 Hz. and convert it to laptop power. Input doesn't even need to be a reasonably clean sine wave.
