Since I already have a station power supply, with a pair of deep cycle 12
vdc batts floating across a 35 amp power supply with a blocking diode in the
dc plus lead, I am thinking of getting a 12 vdc to 120 vac inverter on the
battery output...to feed two desktop pc's plus two lcd monitors.

For the past couple of years I have used an APC 1500 ups to feed both pc
workstation and also am thinking of just getting another ups to feed the
second workstation...if an inverter proves to be now the best way to go.

Before I re-invent the wheel, am wondering if anyone has done this
before...thanks


Beware of the spike at the begining of the square wave from the
inverter...I have heard of people killing their laptops because of it.
I'd run the inverter thru your UPS in hopes it would filter or nullify
that peak which one fellow measured at 600 volts here(for a millisecond
or less)
