Default Electrical Power for Laptops

Would it be reasonable to make an adapter to plug the laptop directly into
the 17AH battery, or is there some reason this would be bad for the laptop?


IBM has a car adapter for ThinkPads. There may be one for your machine.
The laptop AC adapter might be intolerant of the output from your
inverter. The laptop also might run down your 17 amp-hour battery
pretty quickly. The instructions for my IBM car adapter said you wanted
to avoid leaving it plugged in while the car was parked.
