Every topic i read on powering accessories in a camper is based on using an 
aux. battery, a power inverter, etc. My question is, for those of us lazy bums 
that enjoy camping where there is a 110v hookup is there a way to hook our 
radios to that, so that the radio is powered off the 110 and some sort of 
inverter instead of off the battery? My westie is way to low to go out on some 
random trail and out in the middle of nowhere and camp. I prefer to have 
showers close by but "rough it" in my little "RV". Is there something or some 
way to make the radio in my bus power off of 110? The idea i have is some sort 
of switch to switch it from battery power to 110 power.

after doing a search on the samba the only thing i can find is "i don't want to 
be on shore power" or "Aux. Battery hookup" all things to get away from the 
trusty 110 at campsites. i want to hook to the 110. my ultimate goal is to be 
able to watch a movie in my bus using my bus' radio as the sound source. 

some of you may say bring a boombox with you. To that I say, there's not room 
after loading the ice chest, the chairs, the side awning, the food, the 
bedding, the beach cruiser, the two dogs and the wife.
