Overview and quick tour of a 12 volt electrical system I set up in my room. The battery is being charged using the wall outlet as of now.UPDATE:See "12 Volt Room II" for my updated system with new batteries and charge controller. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... eventually plan to have a solar panel for charging the battery and powering my stuff.

I ordered it from the invertersRus website. It cost me about $140 at the time I bought it. It works pretty well but does buzz a little bit if you put a lot of load on it.

Also, where did you get it? And how much did it cost? Thanks!

Thats an aims 300 watt pure sine wave inverter right? Do you like it? Does it work good? I am thinking about getting one, would you recommend it?

why not just use the inverter for everything and not use the 12V car plugs.

I know how the electrical system in a Recreation Vehicle is set up and in fact, those deep cycle batteries are house batteries from my neighbor's motor home.

If you really want to see a full scale 12v renewable system in action, go check out an RV as all lighting is 12v in most and most have inverters for alot of the 120v systems. Solar panels, inverter/chargers, generators, and of course alternators to charge the batteries. Some very high end units will even run roof air conditioning off of the inverters. But this is definitely a good start to learning about 12v uses. It's cool to be the only one with lights on in a power outage.

That was what I ended up using but you want to watch it carefully. Gel cells shouldn't go above 13.8 volts. Most car chargers will charge to about 14.4 volts but this may be too much for a gel cell from what I've read.
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
