    Little help needed from electric nerds amongst us

    I'm hoping that someone can help me.

    I got one of this cheap little FM transmitters for mp3s in cars that run of 2 AA's.

    They have a little plug in the side that I found a spare one lying around for that fits. I thought that I should be able to somehow reduce the voltage from a cars 12V socket to the 3V that the batteries normally provide.
    I know that resistors work for the LED circuits but that also has something to do with the current I think, which isn't written on the case.
    Can it be done? How?

    Thanks
    B-T

    You can get a MP3 FM transmitter that plugs into your cigarette socket for less than $10. Would be less hassle.

    what you want is a voltage divider. You probably dont need to warry about the current.
