    Anybody using DC to AC power Inverter sa kanilang mga cars?

    Naiisip ko lang, if the promises are true na kayang i-drive ng DC power inverter ang mga appliances...tv, vcr, dvd player, etc... why not use the inverter to drive a Monster Home Amplifier for use sa car?

    I don't know kung talagang feasible to use a DC Inverter driven home amplifier for car use. Hindi ko rin alam kung kaya ng battery ito or magtagal kaya?

    One thing is for sure though...ang mga home amplifier ang talagang matitindi ang power...

    Matesting nga bukas...

    Kasi tinest ko ang 2 kong sub using my home amplifier...

    ginawa ko lagay ko sa garahe ang car then from the living room connect ko ang monster amp ko to drive the sub at the car trunk.

    tinest ko muna kung may kalampag ang sub sa likod. kasi napapansin ko may mga cars pag malakas ang sub may nakalampag sa likod ng trunk. either plaka, stuff or mga panels.

    so gusto ko munang matest kung swabe ang tunog walang kalampag. ok nga ang sub pero ang likod parang natahip na palay naman...

    doon nanggaling ang curiousity ko....lupit kasi ng ilang kong home ampli....2-3 pa lang ang volume..luwa na agad ang sub.

    bili ako ng inverter sa walmart bukas. test ko for 30 days kung ndi papalya ang battery...pag palpak soli ko na lang ulit inverter...

    i have a soundstream amp and a RF pero tingin ko iba talaga ang home amp..

    I don't think its feasible pang audio, kasi kapag inverter ang gamit mo, hindi stable ng 60Hz ang cycle ng current and I think hindi rin 220-240 ang volts nya but nasa 205-210 lang! With this siguradong may noise na ma produce yung amp mo. Another thing is if ang appliances mo ay mataas ang load(considering you got a high wattage inverter), siguradong dadapa ang battery mo. I'm afraid hindi din kakayanin ng cigarette lighter yung input mo sa kanya, baka direct cables yun sa battery using a very thick wires (#4 at least siguro). IMHO.

    110 volts yung power inverter na bibilhin ni 'Kuroy'. Kuroy subukan mo munang na IDLE ang oto bago ka bumayo para hindi ma discharge ang battery.;)

    Try ko nga ito curious lang ako... 110V po ang ampli ko.

    Good point Kapitan. subukan ko rin ang direct line instead of sa car lighter. I know manipis nga ang kable ng cigarette lighter.


    Siakol: You mean paandarin muna (ON)/Idle then saka ang ampli?

    Try ko iyong Pioneer SA-8800II ....

    I've tried a car inverter in my car before... It busted the cigarette lighter fuse the first time I tried plugging something into it. Also the inverter gets hot, it has an automatic shutdown.

    BTW, car inverters are usually rated for 150 watts only. Is that home amplifier & speakers rated below 150 watts total?

    May mga inverters na 400Watts and 1000Watts ang output. So palagay ko medyo mataas ang wattage ng kukunin ko.

    Iyong ampli naman ay 150Wxfour channels. Pag hindi umubra dahil masyadong malakas power consumption try ko iyong iba kong ampli na medyo mahina ng konti.

    Salamat po sa mga tulong ninyo...

    Isa lang ang aking masasabi sa setup.... "A MONSTER!"

    Complete naman ang instructions ng nabili ko inverter and straight to the point ang installations. MOSFET/Circuit Braker/Auto Shut ang daming features so ok talaga. 700watts ang maximum capacity ng nabili ko na inverter.

    Wala namang problem ang sa battery. In fact, nagdagdag pa ako ng spare progressive scan dvd player sa setup on top of the home ampli kasi kaya pa ng inverter. May indicator kasi kung low batt na or low input na.

    2 12" JL audio and 2 12" impulse ang subs ko. add ko din ang 2 polk audio 350mm dividing network and 2 polk audio tweeter sa front and 2 sansui tweeters.

    sweet.... thanks guys.

    Ang presyo po ng inverter ay $50 750watts. iyong 350watts naman ay $35 lang. Kinuha ko ay 750w. Sa ebay mas maraming mura...pero ayaw ko namang mag antay ng shipping.

    Oo nga Siakol. Pero puro trunk mounted naman sa likod so oks lang hidden remote controlled naman...

    Eto bale lahat lahat nagastos:
    2 JLW6 w/box- $65
    2 KickerImpulse w/box - $40
    2 polkaudio dividing network plus 2 polk audio tweeter = $2
    2 sansui 150watts tweeter = $5
    1 Pioneer Eq-6500 equalizer = $2
    1 Pioneer SA-8800II Amplifier= $75
    Vector 700W inverter = $50
    Lightning Audio Fuse/Monster Cables = $5

    Total: $244..

    Ang brand new lang ay ang inverter..the rest....good old garage sale....
