Two questions:

1) Should I be poppin' the caps off my 6 volt battery when I'm recharging? Build up of hydrogen gas sort of thing. How about if I'm using a low current recharger, like a Battery Tender?

2) I stuck a CD player in the Blue Funk's glovebox and ran a line to the speakers in its radio grill to listen to ambiance-appropriate tunes. The CD player uses 4.5 volts. Two AA batteries. I hook it up to an AC/DC adapter when I want to listen to tunes emulating from the Blue Funk while it's sittin' in the garage.

My question is: Is there such a thing as an adapter that would convert the 6 volts from the battery to 4.5 volts needed by the CD player?

Thanks. And may Red Skelton be with you.
