Subject: Re: in car power supply
The lib 50 needs 14.6 volts approx to run... your car when running is
putting out about 14.7 at the cigarette lighter socket.. go to tandy and
buy a socket that will fit the power on the side of the lib, I think it
is 3.5 ID 6 OD then wire a cig socket on making sure the positive is
centre, while the car is running plug the lib in presto... I have been
doing it with my Lib 50 for years....
goto www.fixup.net and look in the cooltips section.... that will keep
you busy for a while!
Tell me how you go....
