This is a summary of sources I’ve collected for building your own battery packs. Disclaimer: Working with electricity is dangerous and should only be done by a trained professional. I take no responsibility for anything stupid you’ve done by reading these articles.
Some basic things you’ll need:
- SLA Battery; 12v 18AH, 12v 12AH, And of course EBAY
- Ture/Pure Sine Wave Inverter; AIMS 300 Watt, Samlex 150W, Samlex 300W
- Carrying case
