[sci.electronics] step up power supplies

zahid@neptune.AMD.COM (Zahid Ahsanullah) (10/27/87)

I'm trying to find a power supply that would boost a cars 12v to 120v
with a power rating of atleast 150 watts. It would also be nice if the
standby drain was less than 10 ma. Another thing I was curious about was,
are there any supplies that are designed to produce outputs such 30-0-30v
used in solid state amplifiers. I designed one a couple years ago but it
made the transformer too hot even at standby and killed the battery in
six months.

Any help would be great.
