I pushed for a generator. The techs resisted and ultimately we ended up without a generator. The lights were easier on 12vdc. Propane works so well for heat. AC is at a loss. Why do you say we'll eventually want a generator? Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St

You need 500 lux to splice. Hard to get that with 12 volt lights. Your splicer and otdr will run down in the middle of a splice and you will want a generator. You will have night work and you will need some higher intensity lights outside to see inside the handhole etc. Unless you plan to have a

No idea what it is in lux, but all three of us agree there is more than enough light. I've got the worst vision and can easily see the strands. I should probably specify...we have an inverter for 110vac coming off that battery. Works for phones, splicer, otdr, etc. Battery charges off the truck

I would think that a 1000 watt load would pretty much kill a 12V inverter (~~ 83 amps), and would also be significant for a 24V inverter (~~ 42 amps).  It's not until you get into bigger voltages that the power cables start to look reasonable. bp On
