Hum, it a thought. I think you'd need a battery since it is a charger but then if everything rad off it you could even run the show if power was out.

That looks like a battery charger (13.6V), not a regulated 12vdc power supply.

As Timon said, you might use it if a battery was your primary power, but as standalone power I'd say no, not a good choice.

No it will not work. It is just a charger and must see some voltage to even output. Also it's output voltage would be horribly dirty! Like JonB256 said, If you were using a car or marine battery maybe and that is still a maybe. By single rail they are talking strictly a computer power supply.
