|  Charger Question.
I have Piranha and Vision chargers. Non-Lipo. They both have Clips for the battery in your pickup or whatever vehicle you drive. I have 4 power points in my truck. Can I cut off the clips and put power point [cigarette lighter style] 12v plugs on them and charge through my P/P's and not have to pop the hood when I charge the Batts? I'm thinking on the way to a spot, to top off the batts. Please LMK your input. Thanx.  |

It depends on the size of the fuse that you have to your power points, and the charge rate that you will use. Most of the adapters have a fuse too. I charge wit the one in my car all the time, but I can only charge at up to 3 amps. If I go above that I blow a fuse. |

I use this adapter from Radio Shack. I use the clips to attach to the adapter, that way they are still on there if I need them. My clips are attached by banana plugs which should allow me to remove the clips and plug directly into the adapter. But I just realized I've never tried that. |
