Can anyone recommend a good 12V DC supply which can deliver 3.5-4 Amps
continuously, and which will work off 220 Volt 50 Hz current? I have a
friend who wants to set up his parents in England with a portable NTSC
VCR and TV so he can send videotapes of the grandkids.

Right now, they're doing it by taking the battery out of the family car
(in England) and carrying it indoors... It's a real pain, and besides,
they sit it on a concrete floor and they're worried about it discharging.
[Urban legend alert!]

Oh - obviously, this has to be something available at a reasonable cost
(either here in the States or in England), shouldn't be too heavy, and
should already be in a case (as opposed to just a power supply which needs
to be put in a box).

Thanks in advance,
Rick
