Charging laptop from 12-volt battery
Does anyone have any inexpensive, uncomplicated ideas on how I could charge my MacBook Pro using a 12-volt, deep cycle battery on my travel trailer? Inverter? 12-volt power adapter? I could google it,...

Thanks, all. I've decided to go with what most of you suggested, an inverter. I didn't know they were that inexpensive. So, now I have another question.
I ordered through Amazon a 400w inverter. Instead of trying to figure where to position it for easy plug access, can I just plug my shore power cord to it? Thereby activating all the outlets? The inverter will be used with an extra deep cycle battery I have for my boat. So it's separate and apart from the main TT battery. Of course, I won't use there micro, and the fridge will be on propane.
Why does this sound like a terrific idea? Hoping someone can provide me with a reality check, please. Thanks again.
