    No.

    It's been said before. This hobby isn't for those with shallow pockets.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?

    not soo shallow :)

    well k pockets are not soo shallow..
    the only annoying thing standing in my way is the 12v to 240v .. the rest is not a problem.... i live in ghana west africa and to get an inverter is like looking for a needle in the hay stack... and even if i found one the price would be 3 or 4 times the price.... which i think is not exactly a sane thing to do... thats my little proble... any ideas?
