something that isn't going to corrode out on me in a season. It won't be
directly exposed to the elements.

Under $100.

Suggestions?


Oh...if you are in my killfile, don't waste your time responding. I
won't see it.

Well, seeing as how your killfile is as honest as you are, here you go:

He won't shop there ;) but I bought a 200W continuous / 400W peak inverter
at Wal-Mart for about $25 a year ago. Plugs into the cigarette lighter
receptacle. Works fine for running and charging the laptop while traveling
in the truck. Has 2 outlets, so could also charge the phone and GRS radios
on the trip to Alaska at the same time. As to an FM radio. For less than a
$100 you can buy a nice FM/AM/CD radio.
