AutoSpeed - DC to DC converter solution for alt-less modders

Autospeed may have come up with a solution for our DC to DC converter problems. They used a laptop voltage converter rated at 80W (and tell how to increase that) to power a few simple things. Enough for the ignition and fuel pump? Perhaps, but at the price, you could probably just use two.

Here is an example I found on ebay.
