To calculate the approximate power drain on your battery you will want to estimate the reserve power ("amp/hour") of the battery, and the amps the inverter will require, to meet the continuous load demands of the appliance.

The battery(ies) voltage maintains 11 volts(10.5 volts for GO-AC models) or higher (15.5 volts max 16 volts max for GO-AC models). Wattage is below continuous rating of inverter To determine how long a typical battery will last we need to find the amp/hour rating of the battery. The cold cranking amps or CCA rating is only a number to compare manufacturers batteries. Somewhere on the battery labeling there should be a "reserve minutes" specification.

This depends somewhat on the level of radio power and the amount of power consumed by running motors, but the base level of consumption is in the vicinity of 200 milliamps without motor operation. The gearmotors consume about 75 milliamps each when running continuously. The robot has a 2 amp-hour Li-ion battery pack, so operation between charges should exceed 4-6 hours.

We do not guarantee the amount of charge held by a battery in any way at all on anything but our "Refurbished as New" machines. On these machines the battery will last for at least 1 hour of regular computing which does not use the DVD or CD drive. See similar questions...

AC inverters have built in voltage input protection that allows for safe operation of your AC powered item. Let's say you are trying to run a 12Volt TV That comes with an AC adapter. You would have two ways you could power that TV with your DC pedal power bike generator. First you could hook up your pedal power bicycle generator directly to your 12V Television TV. The problem is that your TV might blow up in smoke if you provide it with 10 Volts or 14 volts. See similar questions...

Yes, it is possible to run multiple lamps on a single inverter. To obtain optimum performance, however, advise the inverter manufacturer to determine if inverter modifications will be required. See similar questions...

Solar cells produce a direct current. Unfortunately, most of the electrical devices we commonly use expect a standard AC power supply. [Different standards apply in different countries, ~120 volt 60 Hz in North America.] An inverter takes the DC from the solar cells and creates a useable form of AC. Besides doing this, an Inverter may also be connected to the electric grid and/or a battery backup system. See similar questions...

The typical car battery has a rating of 60 Amp Hours, and you need to recharge it when you've used 60% of its capacity. That means you only get 60 x 0.6, or 36 Amp Hours of usable capacity, or 432 Watt Hours ( 36 Amp Hours x 12 Volts DC ). Now assume 40% inefficiency in the system due to wires, power converters, transformers, etc, and you have 432 Watt Hours x ( 1 - 40% ), or 259 Watt Hours. Our LED signs have draw an average of 36 Watts. See similar questions...

A: The KS-2 and KS-4 will run for 5.5 to 6 hours off our 7.2 amp hour battery- start up and straight run time. The KS-6 and KS-8 will run for 2.5 to 3 hours of start up and straight run time. One can get a longer run time off the battery if one 'cycles' the gyro. See similar questions...

It depends on what the Stamp is doing. In sleep mode, it can run for weeks. If you are turning LED's or transistor switches on for long periods, the battery might run down in an hour or two. If you try to run a motor off the same battery which powers your Stamp, that battery will run down quickly. See similar questions...

Kino Flo recommends a pure sine wave inverter. Inexpensive saw tooth or near sine wave inverters may not work. See similar questions...

Kino Flo’s Inverter System is an integrated system. The battery packs and power cables are sized to allow sufficient power to operateas much as 1800 watts. A regular car battery would not have significant power to drive the system. See similar questions...

The inverter, transforms the produced direct current energy from the generator to net conforming alternating current. In addition it is important to control the system and cuts off at interruptions the connection to the energy net on power failures. See similar questions...
