What's the climate for running my car in the morning @ bonnaroo for an hour to charge my RC batteries?

Trey,What about bringing an additional car battery, and plugging in a inverter to use for charging. I haven't tried this, but I have heard of people who have and never had a problem! ...
i know a place that makes chargers for car cig lighter chargers. no inverters so no battery drain. great for 6 or 12 volt sla'semail me for more info deadheaded@adelphia.net
If you're schlepping a battery around, you definitely want a true deep-cycle (not the so-called marine deep-cycles which are sorta halfway between an SLI battery and a deep-cycle.) Think Trojan T-105s or similar if you have the space & weight capacity.I use 400 AH of Dynasty AGMs and a 170W solar panel on the roof of the camper. Also have a 12V 140A generator I built with a truck alternator in case I need to run the DC microwave (75A when running!)
