Default Recharging video cam

Hi all, I'm going to the powercruise next month (extremely excited) and wanna capture as much as i can on my sony DVD handycam. But I'm trying to figure out how i can recharge my camera at the show I just purchased a second battery for it but couldn't find a car charger at the sony site.

I'm wondering how you guys recharge your camera's at car shows. I'm considering borowing a petrol generator from my mate for it but I'm thinking that would be way too noisy and wouldn't be a smart idea. Any suggestions are welcome.

okay well i think I'm going to go with the 150W SINEWAVE 12VDC - 230VAC INVERTER (top one) it seems to be the better quality out of the low output ones. I dont think i'd need too much power.

sounds like it will do the job mate, be sure to give it a trial run to make sure the camcorder charges
