What I want to do is have a battery on a power inverter to power a 27" tv and possibly a floor fan.I thought that I could just snatch the system out of my vehicle, wich is the battery, power cap and, inverter. would this be a good set up. I do some floor shows and I wanted some entertainment that would last, would this work? or are there any better ways to do this. All opinions are helpful. Thank you

a capacitor won't do a thing for a television really.. what you want to do is run one or an array of deep-cycle batteries like Optima yellow-tops, then find a high-output alternator to charge them, sufficient cable to carry the current to do so, and look at an RV supply shop for a high-output voltage inverter like they use to power such things in an RV.

thank you for your help. I'll use your advice and try the deep cycle batteries, and stop by the neighborhood Rv shop and check into their inverters, once again thank you.
