Hello ff,

Yes, a lot of us know that a good place to start is to read the entry that is listed on this site's Tech Tips page:

The Ole 12-Volt Conversion

Study that article a little and think about what you need in your coversion. Then ask questions - there are no dumb questions. Most people here try not to give dumb answers (but some of us just can't help it when we do).

Good luck,
Tim
