It's an LCD, which means it's more than likely a low voltage device.
Doesn't take much more than 12V tops to run them.

And 800V (or so) running the lamps so that you can see the picture on
the 12V screen...before you go getting all comfortable poking around in
there.

Is it really 800V? If so what does my laptop use to step the voltage up
to that level?

There are low voltage fluorescents out there. I know, I have one in my
toolkit and it runs on 4.5V.
