Inverters are the best option. You can get Xantrex inverters (a bit pricey), along with some batteries, and you will have an almost uninterrupted power supply. Thanks On Wed, Aug 5, 2009 at 11:58 AM, Riyaz Bachani < riyaz.bachani@ke.wananchi.com> wrote:
A lot of people are installing inverters - that charge batteries, and provide output for a few lights etc. Should work for laptop. 4-6 hours. Check with Kenital, Chloride etc

With the current power rationing, what power options are there for someone working from home ( to power a laptop). apart from a generator ? For instance is there a DC to AC convertor that can be linked to a car battery ?
Speaking of which I do suspect that as of today someone somewhere has a container full of generators docking at the Mombasa Port.
