I run one of my sites from 2 deep cycle batteries, an automatic charger and an inverter. Only trouble I ever had was it got too hot in the enclosure in teh summer and the inverter shut down.
I even put in some ventilation and put the inveter in the path of the cool air and it still got too hot. Next year, we're going to have to completely re-do the whole concept. I still think I'm going to use the DC powered concept, though. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ neofast.net - fast internet for North East Oregon and South East Washington email me at mark at neofast dot net 541-969-8200 Direct commercial inquiries to purchasing at neofast dot net ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marlon K.
