great ideas, i know the inverter has some loses, i need to think realistically,

heck with the floppy drive and hd taken out, i might have room for 2 sealed lead acid batteries,

i'm not sure how the voltage changes when its supplied to the Step UP to fire the crt tube,

i would assume that current stays 120v and goes up from there.

so i would have to generate 120v anyways, that is why i am thinking just do maybe a 50 watt inverter,

maybe i will even wire the batteries in series to make 24V, and just use a 24v inverter that way my loses are less.
