    I am shopping around for a travel power pack for the 1520, and am looking at the iGo Everywhere range. According to their site the 1520 needs the 130W version (100W max, with surge at 130W). Is that right? And they seem to indicate that 1520 with Nvidia graphics needs more power than one with integrated graphics?

    Just buy a 150watt power inverter. I got one from walmart for 30 dollars. With the inverter you can use the same power block that you would use in your home, in your vehicle.
