Field Laptop Computer

We don't currently own a field generator, so I purchased this voltage inverter to power a field teleprompter and, at times, a laptop computer. It does both perfectly well. Previously I had another battery unit that only came with a single proprietary rechargeable battery included with it. So, when the battery died it sent the crew scrambling to find an electrical outlet and run very long extension cords (which isn't always possible in the field). Since I already have multiple V-Mount batteries for cameras and LED lighting fixtures, I can just swap out batteries quickly if one dies. Great solution! No more production delays or concerns that the teleprompter won't make it through the day. I'm actually looking to purchase another one because there is only one outlet on the unit (the only downside). This would allow me to power both our teleprompter and laptop computer simultaneously in the field. I thought the unit was going to be made of 100% plastic per the picture, so I was surprised to find out that the body (other than the actual V-Mount plate) is made out of metal. Another positive! That being said, the unit isn't very heavy which is less load to pack and carry in the field (the weight will come from your V-Mount battery(s)). It's just what I was looking for!

It is very useful and I am getting use to it. It's different from the laptop computer. But I like it. Thanks.

I used the tool to assemble a Laptop computer.

I use this to transfer all my footage from the field to my laptop - works great.

Laptop runs better than the 8 GB that my computer came with that was running.

Great price for a very solid laptop computer.

I enjoy being able to control my laptop computer from a comfortable distance!

We bought this Apple Laptop as a replacement for my wife's work computer when she retired. This is the perfect laptop for her needs. Everything works well, great size and weight. Plenty of power and storage for all of her needs.

Work great under difficult field conditions while my camera is tethered to my laptop.

Just what I needed for my laptop. This stand gives me much needed space on my computer desk.
