Hey all.
Since I recently passed my Technicians exam in Ham and am studying for the General, I am considering putting a mobile in my truck.
The radios I am looking at are 50watts.
I think that is probably too much to expect a cigarette lighter to handle for power.
The kicker is my truck is a lease. I will probably buy it in a few years when the lease is up, but just in case, it sounds like I have to be careful what I do to the truck that could not be reversed, replaced, or repaired if I decide to turn it in at the end of the lease.
Any suggestions on an adequate power setup for the mobile radio.
Thanks in advance for any and all info.
