Post Subject: More experience with the inverterPosted by rickmcinnis on: 9/13/2022
So after a month I continue to enjoy what the inverter does.
I have found that the time one gets from 400 Ahs with the inverter's meter showing 640 watts usage is about 1.5 hours - you could get two if you let the batteries run down further but I figure this is not worth the strain on the batteries.
I am not a marathon listener but that is a little too short a time. Of course one could attach the charger. I have not listened to music with the charger attached so I am not sure how seriously this would affect things. I got a charger from POWERSONIC which is almost quiet even with the fan on and vastly superior to the DeWalt one I started out with.
One of these days i will leave the charger connected and listen.
I have decided to get another pair of batteries. Having to build a new table for the right side amplifiers to fit them. Will be first half of October when they can be added.
So then one has a real lummox of a power supply but still far cheaper than doing what Fremer did for his AC - which was probably the most interesting thing he has ever done in my unhumble opinion.
I continue to think this has many merits.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
