Discover how you can get free, portable electricity to use every time there's a power outage.  It only takes three items:

• a DC to AC power inverter
• a standard 12 volt battery
• a battery charger

A power inverter is a device that changes the DC (direct current) power of a standard 12 volt battery into AC (alternating current) power, which is the type of electricity found in your house.  It also has AC outlets, like the ones on your wall, where you can plug in any device that requires electricity.  Just connect the power inverter to a 12 volt battery and enjoy your free electricity.  It is really that simple and easy to use.
 

With a fully charged battery and an AC power inverter, you have the ability to provide electricity for whatever you need during an outage.  It could be a lamp, clock radio, television, coffee pot, cell phone charger, microwave oven or any other electrical appliance in your home.  You can also keep your laptop or PC running while the power is out.  The larger models have more than one electrical outlet, so you can keep up to four things running at the same time.  If you have more than one inverter and battery, you can supply electricity for many items.

AC power inverters can be used in RV's and boats, as well as any car or truck.  This is the age of electronics, so cell phones, MP3 players, iPods, digital cameras and video games will eventually need to be recharged and a power inverter is invaluable, especially on a long trip with children.  Many of the smaller power inverters plug directly into your vehicle's cigarette lighter and are made just for this purpose.

Your portable, free electricity can also be used for an outdoor job to run your power tools.  You can also take it to the beach or a park to power your musical instruments, your amplifier, a microphone or a karaoke machine.  You can provide music for a party or family gathering without having to find a wall plug for power.  You will be the hit of the party!
