Not sure about the battery, but to answer your second question, what  
you need is a car power inverter. Do a google search on that and  
you'll turn up lots of them. You should be able to get a good one in  
the $30-60 range. They plug into your cigarette lighter and convert  
the DC to AC. They typically provide one or two outlets, just like you  
would find in your house.
