See the P2140 product brief here.
The CNX-P2140 is a 185 watt intelligent DC-DC
power regulator designed to provide safe,
reliable power to today's newest CarPCs. This includes but not limited to the Mac mini classic, Intel Mac mini, Aopen
Pandora, Xenarc, Cappuccino, and many other
Pentium P4-based systems!
The P2140 provides two outputs. The primary
output is jumper selectable for 12V, 18.5V,
or 20V operation and can provide up to 11.3
amps (135 Watts) @ 12V, or 7.5 amps (150
watts) @ 20V. The secondary output is jumper
selectable to provide either +12V to power
your LCD screen (or 13.5V or experimental
purposes), or +5V to power USB devices (such
as the Audigy 2NX sound USB sound card) with
up to 3 amps (15 Watts). The P2140 can accept
battery input as low as 7.5 volts under full
load during cranking while providing a well-regulated
output so that your CarComputer does not
crash.
The P2140 includes all of the sophisticated
features of its predecessors (P1260, P1280,
1290, and P1900) such as Startup/Shutdown
controller, Pulse Start (remotely start the
P2140 with door locks, car alarm, or wireless
device), and DelayON (prevents speaker "thump"
during booting). The P2140 fully and safely
supports "Standby" mode and will
automatically shut itself down (by detecting
excess current drain) if the CarComputer
fails to properly go into Standby mode.
The P2140 is also designed to power larger
systems that demand higher power, such as
P4-based motherboards with full sized hard
drives. The P2140 is fully compatible with
the Travla C137 (90 watt and 120 models),
the C138 (90 watt and 120 watt models) as
well as the newer C158 (90 watt and 120 watt
models) cases.!
In addition, the P2140 can be used with the
Mac mini, Sumicom, Xenarc, IWill, and Cappucino
models that require an 12v, 18.5v, or 20v
power source.

Finally, a product that takes the guesswork out of
design, setup, and operation lets you SEE what's going on with all of the
critical voltages, currents, and power measurements in your system! You can
view real-time readings of important parameters and tweak your system for
optimal performance in YOUR car with the included PSUmoni(tm) Power
Supply Monitor windows application. The P2140 is by far the most
intelligent power regulator on the market!
The P2140 is compatible with all of the latest mini PC/Mac systems including
Mac mini, Intel Mac mini, Aopen Pandora Mini PC, Xenarc SC3, Xenarc SC8,
Sumicom, Cappuccino, IWill, EZgo, and many others. The P2140 can also be used
to power laptop computers or motherboards which include an onboard DC-DC
regulator such as the Commell and VIA TC6000/10000.
FLEXIBILITY is the key word for the P2140. Using the PSUmoni interface you have
full control over many of the critical operating parameters that used to drive
you nuts!
