Look in the product section of this site, there are several cd power sources for Visors.

Hello.
Thanks a lot, but i wanna make this feature myself, by my own hands.
It's too difficult and too cost intensive - get devices from US to Russia. (One addition moment - i have bought my Visor for $62).

Anyway, thank you.

It should be pretty easy to add a DC socket to the back of a Visor - assuming you have one that uses replaceable batteries. You'd need 3V and just connect the leads to the battery contacts within the battery case.

A bit of handiwork with a knife/drill and some minor soldering should do the trick.

Hello!
Yes, i see... I can use battery case, but in this case i must every day to open batteries, contact internal DC to batteries...
Bad way (IMHO)...
I think, better way - for example - across the COM-connector (at the bottom of Visor) or across USB-cradle. Another way - to place DC-connector in Visor by knife, as you said.
In one article was advice to put DC-connector on Visor board and just connect to batteries contacts inside Visor - but i think it's not safe way.

I'm afraid to break my Visor.
If some one can give me advice - plz.
