See my article in QST July 1997 page 40 to boost 5 volts to 12. No RFI. It
evolved in to a booster for people on boats who have laptops that need more
than 12 volts as shown on my web page http://n4uautoo.home.sprynet.com .
Idle current about 50 ma max current in 5 amps. Power out about 90% of power
in.
