Default External power for the Vertica V2

The battery on the V2 doesn't last long enough, and I'd like to supply the unit with some power from my on board 12V system. I know I can set up a cigar lighter plug in type connection to the mini connector at the bottom. But I'd like to use the DC connector at the top. What voltage and what type of connector can I use? Can I put 12V directly in with simple plug that fits?

You want something like this:

(There are also alternative versions of this power-supply that may be
less-expensive, if you don't normally deal in Euros)

Enjoy,
