12V power on a M8?

09's and 010's have basicly NO DC hook ups. It's so bad that cat now offers an DC converter for a meer $ 208.00 list.
I run my KOSO and NOS with a small 12 vdc battery. SUCKS!!!!
seriously????
I guess the instrument cluster works on 12v dc, I dont need big power like you to power NOS solenoids...
Yellow to brown is typically 10-12volts AC. Almost all pull start sleds make ac power for lights, heaters, and instruments. You can do a little with a bridge rectifier and maybe a capacitor to get some decent DC to power your device. It's not too hard to do, but you need to be a bit familiar with electron flow theory and using a volt meter. Good Luck.
For my Garmin 60csx GPS, I took the big red and brown wires at the voltage regulator and it works great.

I did as the others have done with the accessory wires right in front of the fuel tank and even went so far as to put an accessory plug in the dash area. What I found is that the voltage is not clean enough to power my Garmin Nuvi 500. This year I bought a Snowbungie accessory battery and plug. I am hoping this is the solution as I have not been able to install it yet.
