I ordered me a GT Power tire warmer and am wondering what kind of power supply to use with it as the online specs are really useless. Would a regular 12-15v laptop power supply be sufficient?

Thanks

It looks like it comes with everything.

Yeh that is the one I was talking about. Was just wondering as I have a laptop power supply sitting around and don't want to buy a battery/power supply if I don't have to

Are we talking about the simple brick type laptop charger thing?
How can you convert that to some alligator clips or something like that?

It's the amount of current the power supply can supply that really matters.

A set of Much More Digital tyre warmers draws around 6.5A when first turned on, once up to temperature that drops to a few amps.

yeh i was wondering about the current draw as if it was low then i can use a laptop brick power supply as they can supply enough current if its just 6.5A. i wouldn't use the alligator clips, just simply cut the wires and change the plug over.
