www.radioshack.com has a unit on sale for $20 incl. power adapter, a carry
case (for the battey) and a 12 Volt charge cable (for auto recharge) I
think.

12V 3.5 Amp battery (lead acid)

I will be getting one to play with...

Ken

URL was too long to be practical, here is the catalog # 980-1109 - go to
www.radioshack.com and look that up...
