One of the few things I had from my younger years of launching was my Estes 12 volt launch system. I had bought a portable car battery booster which had 12 volt outlets on it. I rewired the clamps to a 12 volt plug and viola! Never had to worry about if I had the juice or not again (that is tuntil last year when I ran into some rough times trying to find work and... well anyway that's all behind me now ). The great thing was being able to recharge the booster by plugging it into the car, so if I ever needed a recharge...

Anyway, I'm still searching for an old launch set with the old launch system and hoping I find it when I have some money .
