Back on topic, I have a 150W Samlex PSW inverter on a 15a transfer switch so it powers the outlet string that powers the TV's, etc. Both TVs are 24" LCD, and I have enough power to watch TV/DVD, power a laptop and charge the cell phones at the same time. I was thinking of a larger one like a 600W but all that does is drain the batteries faster...LOL....like you, we also have a pair of 6V GC batteries.
