The next item on the club wish list

power converter for a car. You can get them from anywhere like 75w to 1200w. They plug into your cars cigarete lighter so you can use a regular plug device (like a charger) in your car. I recomend we get a 2 plug version that can handle 2 chargers at once. If you guys can post the wattage of your chargers that would help us know which version we need to buy. I got a 400w 2 plug version for my work for $30. Nice one that can handle my laptop for hours. Let me know if you think this is stupid or great. The more we play in the bush the more we are going to need this stuff. Like the 22nd..cough cough....I have a battery thing from Canadian tire that we could plug it into so that we don't drain anyones battery. I doubt charging little 8.4v batteries would kill a large car battery anyway.

Great idea my Dad has one for his truck. I've run a CD player on it during a road trip, and my dad has run the house T.V. and V.C.R. off it durring power outs.

I have one that the club can use whenever, I've ran my lap top and a DVD player off of it....as well as my XBOX at a different time. The club can't have it...but whenever we need it, it'll be there!

At the last game I was thinking one of those would be handy.
