Battery question.....
« on: July 19, 2003, 02:34:15 PM »
Ok so last year  this d00d had a car battery(small one) at Trey Tower City. He some how rigged it so he could hook a power strip to it and plug in. Any clue how he did this....?

Why, I have use of a Roland Digital mixer(REAL NICE TOO!) Just starting to think of how I could use this at a show.....

I have seen this done.  Basicaly, I believe it needs to be charged, probvably with a charger terminated in aligator clips to attach to the terminals.  Then you would have to run a power invertor off of that.  So battery->4-pin->male 4-pin to power invertor.  I think this would work, but again I am not sure.  The only thing I can otherwise think of is to pick up one of those big portable dc car starter deals.  They have a 12/20 if you get the big ones.   You then would plug the invertor into the unit using the cigarrette adapter since the unit has a 12v dc power vsource via the cigarette input.  I hope this makes sense.

It may have been a deep cell boat battery FYI!

not sure what they were doing. they had the lawsons hung upside down and clamped onto the stand, and a set of mics on the stand that might have been split 24" and they were powering everything off a power strip.
