[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 32227, member: 34"] Re: Power Inverters TJ, that little unit looks like it would do exactly what I want. It just sucks that it's so expensive. I'm going to talk to my generator buddy who only deals with real-deal backup systems for commercial buildings and see if he can't get me a nice small diesel generator that I can pop in the back of the truck for these sort of gigs. I don't want a trailer, because that requires another truck. I think I can get a used/refurbished 10-20kVA diesel unit for less than $3k. Others have made very valid points about inverters. It's more of a hodge-podge setup than I'd like to do, and I think it will end up costing me more in the end than I want anyway. Another SFN user has a 1500 watt inverter I'm going to mess around with, but I won't be using it for anything critical. As I just mentioned in another thread, good business decisions are made based on ROI, not cost, so I need to suck it up and deal with it. Thanks for the advice everyone. [/QUOTE]
