Amazing idea a customer came up with...

[Canaan 10+ year member]

We I was up front helping 2 guys and one was looking at used amps in the front case. I was showing the guy a little pioneer 760w peak amps when his buddy spotted a used 1500w power inverted and said:

"I need that power pack so I can run my battery charger. That way I can charge my battery while I play my beat"

I couldn't even say anything.

I was just stunned.

that's pretty smart, except for the fact that the alternator already does that. Maybe he means with his engine off?

Woah so he will make more energy than he uses, now thats a smart dood.

well the inverter draws from the battery to charge the battery?!

what powers the inverter? the same thing that powers the amp right?

unless it creates power but "invert" just beans change...i think

should have suggested to just hook his sub up to the inverter. Steady 60 htz tone, 1500 watts. Tune the box high for best debeeze

so if its a power inverter its changing AC to DC power? So outlet to battery I'm assuming...

Inverter takes 12v to 120 to be used to power a 120v bat charger that is 12 volt. Follow?

It's changing the DC from the battery to AC to power the battery charger.

He'll just end up draining his battery faster.......

no power inverters convert dc to ac ...

stinger makes a badass 150 amp one that you can play your demo car for HOURS without your batts dying

the battery charger connected to the inverter will draw more amps than it creates for sure

oops I got the two mixed up. DC to AC I mean //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
