• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Finally a direct DC power adapter for the MagSafe connectors. Luckily saw this in Macworld Magazine. Hefty price though. The DC to 17V DC adapter is 150 and if you want, shell another 100 for a external battery, and more for a bigger battery.

Made by Hypermac.

Boy i've been waiting for this for such a long time. I have fried way to many wires and fuses waiting for this. This is definitely on my 2010 must get equipment.

On that note, has anyone here seen a direct DC adapter for Dell laptops? Not an inverter, but an actual DC to DC plug. Or would that be risking frying the computer?

I've had an alternative model magsafe adapter for about two years now in my vehicle. Why Apple hasn't made one, I have no idea. Glad to hear that there's some competition though...

Ryan - This company has the best DC adapters bar none:

Hopefully your Dell model is listed there somewhere. I bought a pure sine wave inverter then happened upon a thread about DC adapters. I have both now from Lind and the inverter is in the box collecting dust!
