That sounds a lot simpler. So this converter is not an inverter then?

Would it be possible to have the house and engine batteries conected
in series to give 24v, step this down to 18v to power the laptop. Then
tap off each battery for normal 12v service. Sorry if this is a dumb
question but I need a dc supply as the inverter interferes with the
ssb radio when receiving weather faxes.
