You will need to be careful when using a power convertor that you do not exceed the capabilities of your 6V system.Basically the current level that a converter will draw from your 6V system will be a little more than double the amperage draw that the radio pulled when operated from 12v system.If the 12v radio pulls 2 Amps at 12v you will see about 5 amps from the 6v system when the radio is on so don't try to use a high powered 12v radio "blaster" and you will be OK. Good luck |
