Random Electricity question?

Wondering if a deep cycle battery can drive a power inverter to supply power to a battery tender.


Enough for the hour or less my bike requires to go to green when the tender is hooked up.

Guess I'll have to read on the tender on what the input power requirements are.

After 1200 I'll be able to get near to it when the troll is off the property so I don't drive them more nuts, because I am removing my crap from the garage.


Then bring the deep cycle to the house to top it off.

I should ask more questions, like why, but that's your business. I don't know why you couldn't so long as your inverter can transfer the amount of energy needed for the maintainer. you will still have to recharge the deep cycle battery with something stronger than the battery maintainer produces, as the deep cycle still has a threshhold of storage.
My scoot can sit for weeks and still start. I have a maintainer and a small 2 amp charger, but have never hooked it up. Never needed it

Lost garage, bike in storage, can move deep cycle battery to house for recharging, take back to storage to tender charge bike

Something feels wrong about that but the more I think about it, the more willing I am to believe it is possible. Foe how long would be the obvious question.

It's obviously the long way around going from AC to DC to AC to DC. Amperage is going to be the issue rather than wattage.

It'll work in a pinch. It'd be cool if you could arrange a timer to ease the burden of an expedient return to the storage facility. Their will still be a static drain on the battery as long as the inverter is still on thus potentially taking your deep cell way down.

My tenders usually go to green within a half hour or less, when I hook it up to the bike.


Here is where I'm at, blue dot, the bike is less than 200 yards away. I can and do walk to check it out, so not a problem to hook up for an hour or so and then disconnect the whole shebang.

Best I can tell is that the tender draws less than a half amp, from the deltran site, so it will need 80 - 100 watts to run it.


Maybe I could get a maintainer solar panel to lay on the roof just above the door to the unit to tickle the battery up.

Harbor freight sells a 12v solar panel that puts out about half an amp. Not sure if it discharges overnight though...
