Hope that helps.

Sure does, thanks Chris. I rang Jaycar before your post and they can set me up with a rechargable 6v battery including all connections to my drive for less than $40. I'm just going to have to live with carting a 12v and 6v battery around, but's that's not too much of a problem provided I am observing relatively close to my car.

Thanks all for your guidance.
