Obviously not ideal, but I'm considering bringing enough lead with me on the road (in a car) to invert to 120v for 'camping', and to run my meanwells to charge the bike @ ~100v DC. Kinda debating this as I should have a bigger inverter and could instead primarily charge direct from campground hookups etc. The only catch Is I'm looking at about 25 pieces of large acreage in several states that I'll use the bike to surveil, and it would be best for my lipo to charge right before the ride- I didn't plan to always leave directly from a campground or even use one to camp every day, so kinda leaning towards the mobile charging.
Side question, how many amp hours will be needed from the 12v lead acid bank for inverting and charging about 7ah into the 100v lipo? I'm thinking like 60ah, before losses!!! You should probably have at least 200ah of lead in that case, for just one charge?!?
I only found one mention on the web or on the forum of running powersupplies with only modified sine inverters.
Apparently it worked? https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=41572&start=450
Does anyone know if there's any issue of longevity etc without pure sine for the chargers?
I mean, they're just taking it back to DC anyway right? So far there isn't anything I've had a problem running with modified sine- ac motors just tend to make a little noise.
