How is it wired up?? The extra battery will get empty pretty quickly too. Will it need a battery charger? I've heard of power packs that plug in a normal power outlet and transforms that into 12 volts directly..

is the show indoors or out? for indoor shows, you might have to buy power from the place.

It would be for both...It's a 2 day event. Outside, I want to play my stereo a good part of the day and inside I need to be able to power the ice and the lighting all day...I think I need a power supply that transforms normal electricity to 12 volts..

every car show that i've been in has supplied power depending on what class you're in. if it's audio, then they should already be set up for it. if it's a ghetto as car show, then i would recommend buying an optima battery. it allows you to run your car longer with high power demands. good luck!
