[misc.forsale.computers] Wanted: 24vdc-->5/12vdc power supply

msz@ESD.3Com.COM (Mark Zaller) (03/13/91)

I am looking for a computer power supply that will run a 386/486 PC
directly off of a 24vdc power system in a small airplane (Cessna-T210). 

I am told that computers need 5vdc & 12vdc. I would want to replace the
normal 115vac power supply with a 24vdc power supply to run directly from
plane power. The plane actually has a 28vdc alternator with a 24vdc battery
(just as a car has a 14vdc generator and 12vdc battery). Power may fluctuate
between 24-26vdc when the landing gear or flaps are being  powered.  

New, used or a reference to company that makes one would be appreciated.
Or, I would also like to converse with someone that knows how to do this.
