CB Radio run off 12vt...

Ok.. I got really excited about a new vehicle I was possibly getting, ripped all my stuff out of my truck.

Well, turns out the *******s ended up not doing what they said, so I backed off..

Now, I need a temporary power supply for my CB radio... (Got a 4-5 hour road trip ahead.)

Can it run off the 12v supply coming up near the radio?

Any suggestions?

Who knows how much longer this truck will work for me.. reaching 100k miles, and smelling rubber from under the hood after the engine heats up....

Just wish I could afford getting a newer vehicle...
