Ipod Touch Docking Station with Speakers.

Jun 28, 2011 6:27AM PDT

Any Help out there. I am looking for a decent (less than a $100) docking station with speakers a that will run on a 12v CAR AC ADAPTER POWER SUPPLY. I Drive a semi that is bear bones with no radio or speakers. I have a 12v power supply on the vehicle, for either a cigarette lighter adapter or, positive(+) and Negative (-) posts for alligator clips. Anything out there that I can use?

I know I can use a power inverter for a 110v plug-in, but I'm trying to cut down on the gear I need to carry with me on the job. thanks.

Might be very difficult to locate

I've yet to see one in person, but I've had good luck getting help with more exotic iPod/iOS related acessories @ www.ilounge.com. There are obviously charging docks w/o speakers that work very well via the lighter socket, or simple 12v DC to USB cables for charging.

Hey you must find a dock that has 12v power supply so you can make a DC 12v cord and hook that up with your car.! I hope this helps a little
