Temporary Power Options

[johninlondon1]

Hi all,

Just looking for some advice or alternative solution.

We have an event coming up (no power available) and wish to have a temporary power supply to supply a display lit stand (240v) , a  TV (240v, 400w) and  2 laptops for approximately 2 hours in the morning and 2 -3 hours in the afternoon.  Any suggestions on a temporary power source (no generator allowed) to allow constant 240v power.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

John

12v lights and tv, think caravan/camping stuff.

the laptops should run ok for a few hours then charge in the middle of the day,

Could you drive this lot on portable solar panels, bearing in mind the trailing leads?

A Steptoe suggested, many Tv's  are now are 12v running through a transformer. A couple of car batteries or booster packs should do the trick

Any inverter really uses up the battery power a lot lot quicker than you would imagine

Use LED lights for the display
