    I have a Dell Vostro 1500 and I would like to have the ability to charge my laptop while in the car. Can someone recommend an inexpensive option? Thanks!

    I have seen really good ones at walmart, like a 250w with 2 plugs, and usb for 37$ thats what I would get if you have a local walmart.

    This one is designed for game system and stuff and works great:
