How far is the tub from the house? If it's close, just put the PS inside the house and run 12v power from that to the radio.

I was also concerned about current output of the ebay one I found, I have a feeling it won't be enough, even though im not gonna be running any crazy setup with it or anything.
The hot tub is not that far from my house or better yet my garage, but I would have to bury wires under ground to get to the tub deck from either and that can be a pain and would rather not if I dont have to.
I have a 30 amp pyramid power supply that I use for charging my rc stuff and was thinking that it would be perfect to run the hot tub system and it was cheap, like $60 or something like that. However I'd be concerned about how to protect it from moisture.
