Default 12 volt power supply

I am looking for some sort of 12 volt power supply to run my stereo and monitors off of at the big indoor shows. Does anyone know what I would use and where to get one? I have seen at some other shows where guys have a power supply running there systems.

Power invertor, any local shop will have some, even home depot and lowes.

Converts 110 to 12. I have seen some where you can set it to any size conversion.

Have to make sure you match the amperage. Also alot of cheap inverters will add noise into the system. I use one of the SPS80 's for my car and have a permanet terminal block mounted to the car for it. I just plug it into the wall and the car...all done. Also you might want to wire in a toggle switch to turn on all your electronics while the key is in the off position.

The terminal block is toward the bottom of the page. SQD4
