Hi,
I am new here and I hope I've found the right spot to place my questions.
There's something I'd like to understand.
Very often notebooks use internal batterys with 11,1V (wich porpably corresponds to 3S 3,7 LiIon).
However, the power adapter comes in at ~19,5V.
Is the 11,1V converted internally up to a 19,5V or do the components run on 19,5V?
Since converting looses quite some power, why dont they just use f.i. 5S LiIon = 18,5V. Most notebook ma also be supplied with that Voltage so they could spare the conversion.
For sure, there is a reason.
Thanks for providing your knowledge and experience.
