For anyone who needs a good source to power a car radio, scavenge an "XT" or "AT" power supply from an OLD computer (pre 1997 or so). If it's marked "ATX", you probably won't be able to get the power supply to turn on without being attached to the motherboard. The power supplies in these old computers usually had the on/off switch directly on them, and they provide up to 10 amps of very well regulated DC +12V (and +5V) power. -----Original Message----- From: Forward Look Mopar Discussion List [mailto:L-FORWARDLOOK@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ron Waters Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2008 10:16 PM To: L-FORWARDLOOK@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [FWDLK] Battery Charger All - I just purchased a ctek 12v battery charger. Could I use this device as a power source for a 12V car radio, or would I need a power inverter to accomplish this ?
