[QUOTE="rod, post: 1391949, member: 5382"] A hundred years ago at a yard sale I paid 5 bucks for a medium size boom box that took 4 D-cell batteries. Four D-cells equal 6 volts so I had a radio/tv repair shop put some kind of gizmo in it that would allow it to run off of 12 volt UPS power. A secret power cord with alligator clamps on the ends that plugs into where the head phones would normally go and I had a radio I used for 20 plus years. I got caught with it hooked up a couple of times but as with everything else at UPS that soon blew over and I was back in action. I still have it and use it at campfires and such powered off my atv battery. It looks like it has been through hell (and it has) but it still works and sounds awesome. [/QUOTE]
