Funny this was brought up at this time... I have my jump box that holds a charge normaly 2 weeks of so, I forgot to charge it over the weekend and it died today. two weeks ago it died and I was out with no power inside a garage and had to run a long set of 12v cords to use the lamp off my truck. When I got home I remembered I have a 110 to 12v converter and though it in the truck for the next time that would happen and I can just plug into a 110 outlet to use my 12v light. Well, I was out on a job on a lot with no power and no outlet to plug into, But I now carry my honda 1000 watt gen. I just pluged into the generator 110 with the 110 to 12v converter and had light. I had 3 jobs today that were overcast or the UV was not up to snuff being early.

It has been worth the price for the honda... I am charging as we speek now... I love backup power supply.

I bought the converter from Radioshack a few years ago for another use.

They were telling me that they sell a lot to guys in home workshops to use there takeout radios from their cars to work in the shop on 110...

Just another idea for anyone that needs it. Just to use in the customers garage if your box dies instead of running off there cars... Some people are strange that way not to use there 12 v thinking it will drain there battery..
