I always power my tpdd and my computer off the same six volt gel cell.  I think
the problem with the power shutting off may have to do with where you branch
off the power from the batteries.  The cord that leads to the computer and the
cord that leads to the tpdd should both branch off from as near to the battery
terminals as possible.  That is especially important for the negative power
lead.  Battery current that flows to the tpdd should not flow through a common
lead to the M100.
