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

I have a M2 Tech Vaughn DAC that runs on battery power and disconnecting the power cord from it and running solely on a fully charged battery is a true revelation.

Some random feedback.

I downloaded some new software for the battery - it is on my network and I can monitor it from my iPad. With the new software, the fan does not go on while driving my amp.

(Note, my amp only draws 35 Watts which is little more than what a DAC or CD player would draw.) 

For kicks-and-giggles I ran the toaster off the battery. The toaster drew close on 700 Watts(!) of power and the fan turned on from the get go and the unit did heat up. 

I did get the extended battery for my unit. I now seldom have my battery go below 85% during an evening of listening. Keep in mind my amp is very frugal power wise. You can expect the same or better performance on your front end components.

Lastly, the unit unit can be switched between 50Hz and 60Hz output. I am not sure if I am imagining things, but I'm sure my amp sounds better on 50Hz. I suspect the rectifier has an easier time with the slower cycle, and/or it has an easier time dealing with ripples at 50Hz than 60Hz. 
pauly, thanks for the update. I would most likely draw more power than you, having my ESL's plugged in. I'm guessing that the additional battery would be enough. This battery option seems simpler and it makes much more sense than a traditional power generator not to mention moe affordable.
