Switching to battery power

Hi

Has anybody switched their audio system either wholly or partially to battery power? I've read that some folks have had good results using Goal Zero power stations for doing this, but I'm sure a couple of quality deep cycle and good full wave inverter would work no?

Please share if you have tried it and what your finding were.

Thanks
Paul

I’ve never had a problem George and Herr Friedrich has been making ASR since the early 1980’s. It’s now at the tech because I have a signal cut in the right channel but this is the first time since I bought it that I’ve had repair work done.
Any views on the Milwaukee lithium generator?

Just a copy/paste from an owner Idiosyncratic, responding on the Stereophile review of it.

George, I find this post odd. To make the claim that lights are turning on and to not know what they are for. Trying to play the amp with an uncharged battery, etc... It's as though he's making up issues or he's not operating the amp in the way it's intended.

For those who are looking at a no cost option, this unit seems to be a favorite. I still wonder how different it would be from the above mentioned Milwaukee MX.
