P17 Gen 2 car charger

[benj5386]

Hi everyone. First post so be kind

I've been given through work a P17 gen 2 Thinkpad. It's a bit of a monster.

Am i correct in thinking there isn't a car charger big enough to power this (12v accessory adaptor)?

Thanks

Ben

I've used 90w, 60w, & 45w adapters with my machine that came with 135w standard. It's probably not recommended, but it depends on demand. I think 135w for mine is the maximum, I've never had an issue other than the initial warning from the BIOS it's not the original charger.

Ask your boss to also give you a travel Thinkpad.
The new X13s (with Snapdragon) comes to mind.
It is supposed to have terrific battery life (28 hours...)
