this may sound daught but i dont no much about batteries, so if ya have 2 6v 10a batteries and join them together does that just have the same output as a 12v 20a??!!??

If you join them in series you'll have 12v 10A

 

If you join them in parallel you'll have 6V 20A

 

Hope that helps ............

something like this looks good:

 

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/12V-20Ah-sealed-lead...175011466QQcmdZ

 

Then buy one of these as well , to convert to a 12V cigarette lighter connection, where you can plug in your lamp
