[QUOTE="soberups, post: 370660, member: 14668"] I had the same problem, I just quit using an inverter and bought a radio that uses 8 batteries. All batteries---whether aa, c or d cell---are 1.5 volts. An 8-battery radio runs 12 volts, same as the package car. Open the battery compartment of the radio and drill a small screw into the first positive plate and hook your hot wire to that with a roach clip. Connect your negative wire to the last negative coil, and you are done. I set mine up with a quick-disconnect trailer plug, so my radio lives in the truck with a little pigtail hanging out the back, and the wires stashed elsewhere. All I do is plug in the pigtail, hook the hot wire up to the positive terminal under the dash, ground the negative out on the chassis, and I have tunes. Takes about 5 seconds to hook up and it works whether the iginition is on or not. [/QUOTE]
