HG>My entire ham radio station is powered from a 12V battery with backup   
   HG>from a 20A constant voltage power supply. The 20A rating is there to

   HG>In this way, I don't have to buy separate mains power supplies to every

   MFJ sells a nice device for running a 100 watt transmitter of the   
   cigarette lighter outlet in a vehicle.   
   It uses 4 Farad capacitors for storage and has the charging input   
   current limited to less then 15 Amps.
