    Grant read the listing it states current at all voltages.

    Watts equals amps x volts, easy to work out.

    ....Notice the listing says it has a noisy fan (perhaps not really ideal next to your Hi-Fi then).

    In pigeon English it says if the fan bothers you - you can remove it - but then it might get very hot (sounds a bit dodgy to me).

    Any problems using this on 240v? Looks like it's only rated for 220v looking at the transformer.

    Running fine, to be honest did not take much notice of the stated voltage.

    According to this link, it's within the tolerance.

    What are the chances that something like this: DC-DC Converter Step Down Module 12V to 5V 3A 15W USB Output Power Adapter https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01G8PZS..._S1xwCbD3D5NYE would work to power the Pi from a car battery?
