I bought at Oshkosh ($49) a rechargeable 12V battery with 7 Amp-hour
endurance and a cigarette lighter adaptor output. This can easily run my
laptop computer, XMRadio receiver, and GPS for way longer than my

airpalne's
endurance. It is one more thing to carry around, but this also makes the
devices completely portable and ends any worry I might have about

impedance
matching when connecting devices to my airplane's cigarette lighter

adaptor.

You got ripped off. You can get a 7 amp hour battery from Tower Hobbies

(RC supplier) for 20 bucks. Those jumper packs for cars also serve the same
purpose, for less money.

I like your idea, just not the implementation! g
