Looking at getting a Power Wheel (those motorized little go carts that look like a Jeep or Corvette) for my 2 year old. I want to put a small system in it. Has anyone done this and what is involved? Mainly worried about the battery size and lugging around the extra wait. Used to see these quite a bit in magazines, then they were pretty common place or played out.

just throw a larger battery in it, it not only will last longer sustain the stereo, but it will make it go faster.....i remeber when my nabour put the larger battery in his kids power wheels trike, that thing ripped.

I got about 2/3s finished on the system in my daughter's Barbie Lambo Power Wheels. My biggest holdup was that the car was 6volt and I did not want to burn it up. Compound that with very very limited room for battreies or anything else and I abandoned the project. She's happy with it just as a toy anyway.

We just got my son the PW Silverado and it's 12v - as most look to be now - so the system would be way easier. The Silverado is pretty roomy for an enclosure and such too.
