Title: charging power while on the road or at festivals....
Post by: TaperBryan on April 08, 2005, 09:05:46 AM: I wonder if this would be ideal for charging a 6v power sonic battery and the wal-mart 9v battery while driving?

Tripp Lite
Model #: PV375
12V DC input; 120V AC output; 2 outlets
375 watts continuous output
600 watts peak output
Convenient cigarette lighter plug

If so, I just so happen to be in Tripp Lite business development for my company. and i'm thinking of giving my acct rep thats over our company a call and asking him to send me one! ;)

Great for festies when i wake up too early and need more sleep i just go sit in the car w/ the AC and charge the batteries for an hour or so and catch a little more sleep.

Post by: TaperBryan on September 09, 2005, 12:28:22 PM: Sweet.....just scored a FREE TrippLite PV150 power inverter here at work. The TrippLite rep left it in a box under my desk. ;) :laugh: Now, when I go to festies (whenever that may be), I'll be able to charge batts.
