Alex Pranger) Organization: Harvey Mudd College, Claremont, CA Lines: 18 I also am in need of similar information, but from reading the postings I'm not really sure what exactly my needs are. I work at a Boy Scout summercamp, and I would like to use my computer. by one of two Disel generators. This system is prone to frequent "Brown Outs" the surges. I am not really worried about the Brown outs as much as I am about money (my editor is giving me problems ignor glitches) to spend. So will it be better to get a suicide fuse, then just keep replacing it, or should I get the into a battery then giving battery power to the computer. (at least this is how I think it works). Cost is an important factor, but the life of the computer is more important. Please recomend brands too. Respond by post or e-mail, Thanks in Advance: L. Alex.
