Is it powerful enough to run a car radio?

While it supplies 12 volts what matters most is the amps required by your stereo and all (if any) accessories. The charger I have states 5 amps. The radio should list the power draw on its spec sheet. If its minimal you may get lucky but considering it looks like you want to run the radio near a household outlet there are better options that will do what your looking for. You could even consider using an old computer power supply and tap off the 12 volt line. Good luck.

I would say since the refrigerator it connects to is 12 volts and the car radio runs on 12 volts, should work just fine. Not sure how you would make the connection to make the radio work, but good luck

Yes, but the factory radio doesn't have the enough power for make them kick like suppose to, I will recommend an 4 channel amplifier for best results.

yes and no it will depend on what you are running in the car. I have two 5000 amps with three 3500 watt 12" in my trunk. And i have the sirus radio.

Yes. More than enough power. I am running 2 of these from a WiFi receiver and amp that only puts out 40 watts and they sound great.

Yes. You can play and charge it with household power. It also has a DC power supply for in the car charging and usage.

Yes, so long as the radio itself is plugged into power. The outlets don't produce AC power from a battery.

I am sorry, I only tried to use the radio for far distance FM station receiving at home, so not for installation in a car. But the radio was not good for my application, so I returned it. Turning it on, wiring it up on my desk was very simple, the instructions seem to be 100%. Sorry for not being able to help you.

Well, most car amplifier are power amp which require preamp such as the car deck to control the sources. Not sure why you will want to bypass your deck.

It depends on what your music source is. Most radios or players should have enough power to run these speakers. If you're using a car radio that will be adequate.

Yes,but get an amp from radio shack. It will be more powerful then the one that comes with unit.

No, it will run the radio. It does have a usb outlet in the compartment in the side that will charge a cell phone when plugged in. Also if you have not heard this radio, it has poor sound quality for the money. The sound output range is slim, no high end and no low end. My old $25 18v ryobi had better output. As far as the battery life, I use the 3.0 amp hour 20v batteries, running 9 hours a day I get about 3 days out of them. I'm thinking that the batteries are being drained overnight when the unit is off and the battery is still in the radio. I'm currently taking them out at night to see if they last longer. Hoped this helped. If I had the space I would have paid the extra and bought the full size radio. Let me know if you have any other questions.
