The AC adapter serves as a converter from AC (Alternating Current) to DC (Direct Current) power because your computer runs on DC power, but an electrical outlet usually provides AC power. It also charges the battery pack when connected to AC power.
The AC adapter operates on any voltage in the range of 100 ~ 240 V AC.
The car adapter serves as a converter from car battery to DC power. The cigarette lighter port of the car usually provides DC power. It also charges the battery pack when connected. The car adapter operates on any voltage in the range of 12 ~ 32 V DC.
NOTE: The battery pack cannot be charged when the input power of car adapter falls below 11.5 V DC.
