Well, this is just in the planning stages, but I'd like to get all my ducks in a row before I fire up the soldering iron.
If my assumptions are right, a very servicable battery pack for my Neewer C-300 strobes could be made for around $50 with 7amp lead acid battery, a cheap power inverter and an inline fuse.
The only issue I can see is the quality of the electricity produced by this setup. This will produce a "dirty" electricity that could potentially fry some fine electronics.
Since a pure sine wave power inverter is prohibitively expensive for this application it's important for me to know if my strobe units will be damaged by a dirty electric source. I assume that since the unit is all analog there won't be a problem, but I'm not an electroscienceographist I can't be sure.
So, anyone in the know here? Any way for me to tell if I could run this setup?
