it's actually an 8 battery holder and the guy says he uses circuits to regulate voltage no matter what you put in it ???

yeah schwill, its pretty simple, he just places a couple caps/resistors,a nd BAM, regulated voltage, a nice cap would hold a steady current i believe

Yeah, these would definately work great.  Would be kinda nice to have it all as one unit(rather than battery going into much bigger regulator box).    But I probably would give doing it myself a try perhaps since all the parts are pretty darn cheap I imagine.

well, Hopefully the next time they upgrade the backpacks they switch over to Firewire.  But that's the great thing, they are always evolving.  And the developers actually go to forums and listen.  They are the one's that are most likely reply to questions and implement your ideas.

DC output: 9V at .8 amp

what does this mean in hours of use if this guy's 9V batpack rated at 14.4 Wh?

9 v*.8 A = 7.2 watts

That battery pack will give you 2 hours - less than a pack of 8 good AAs.  That's a pretty hungry device you got there.  If you run the popular battery space pack that has 3000mAh (the one everyone uses for the UA-5), you should get almost 4 hours.

Sorry if this has been answered somewhere before.

Has anyone found a retailer that actually has the creative car kit in stock?  Every place I have looked either no longer stocks this item or it is out of stock.

Edit:
Before someone mentiones it I do realize that I don't need the actual creative power cord.  The problem is I want something as small as possible.  

Everything I have seen so far is either a fixed voltage with the regulator inside the cigarette lighter plug or switchable voltage with a bulky selector box.
