Well, thats the post I read, thats kind of what confused me, those pictures all illustrate using the docking sled with the home AC power supply lined up in back... not running off the 12v input on the docking harness. So add the fact that I coulda sworn I read that it didn't work in the car (then again my brain likes to play tricks on me).... and well I got confused. SorryTony my bad.... Oh well thats cool I'll start my docking station tonight. Just out of curiosity why do most people make their home docking stations with the factory AC power supply? Is it just the fact that they prefer it in "home" mode or is there something else I need to know? Seems like an added pain in the rear to get lined up properly when they could grab a 12v dc power supply and run it off the sled harness?
