I used an inverter in TINTIN for awhile. Since I didn't wire the radio
through the ignition switch, the silly thing would put out a high-pitched
whine all the time. It would tend to discharge the battery. When I
attempted to add a CB radio, it kept burning out. After returning the
radio three times, I decided to convert. It was trivial, even with the
dual six-volt batteries. The only consideration was opening the
electronic tach to switch the leads and reverse the pickup loop on the
back. Re polarizing the generator was a snap. I now have a single
twelve-volt battery. These are my only deviations from original equipment.
It's most definitely worth it!
