Would there be a way to power the SilverGen and Silverpuppy generators off
batteries in case of an electrical outage? What kind would be needed--a
car battery?
There is no problem doing that. You should not need anything as large
as a car battery.
Of course there is no such thing as having a battery with too much capacity.
Likely a small gel cell of 5 to 8 Amp Hour capacity will do fine. This is
of course if the units use 12 Volt DC.
You can check the AC adaptor for voltage and current rating to get some
idea of what you need.
A solar charger would be an advantage for extended power failures. Like
batteries, they come in a variety of sizes, voltage and current ratings.
Unless the controls of the automatic generators use more power than I
think, 100 to 200 ma will be more than enough. You could always contact
the manufacturer if you cannot decipher all the technical stuff.
The rechargeable batteries are available everywhere for $ 18.00 to $
30.00. We buy them by the case.
For a number of years, I serviced and calibrated the battery test equipment
in a large battery factory.
These units were so large they had a water hose connected to remove the
heat generated.
One day, I told the people to bring a battery that would deliver 800
AMPS. They all gave each other a blank stare. They they said, "We don't
have one that large".
I said, ........ "I guess I can skip that test".
Also serviced the high voltage testing equipment on the assembly
line. This was some spooky work.
I always stood on a rubber mat, made no connections with the power on, and
kept one hand behind me at all times.
Let me know if you have more questions.
