#1: How can I provide 12v Power? Author: Jack123, Location: Earl Shilton UKPosted: Sun Jun 17, 2012 2:34 pm ---- Basically, doing some lighting for my car, and before I got cutting up wires in the car, I want to test the circuit out of the car, now, what can I use to provide 12v Power?
Looked on ebay, nothing found really, quick google search, same again, help?
Edit: I think I am in the wrong section, sorry.

I was hoping for a more, in-home solution, something I can plug in to test the circuit in the house, like a variable power pack or something, put something that will take circuits.
I'm sure there is something, I just can't remember the name for the life of me.

Yes! but with something like the pins on a voltmeter, or something with croc clips, so I can clip it on to the circuit and power it up.

I don't want to blow myself up, plus is means taking my car battery inside.
That plug looks ideal, just not a fan of cutting leads, rather have something made for the job.
God I'm picky.

Yeah, I just want some way to test the circuit inside my house before I take it out and fit it into the car.
