This is my small contribution to the thread for those looking just to power TV, decoder, DC Fan, and charge phones..No inverter, no ups...just DC power straight to appliances....

I got a 19volt 32inch LG TV, an INEC 48ah blue battery and one of those 19volt Saiko 19/30 volt distributors...If you can't find the blue batteries, any 12 volt rechargeable battery will do..Lifepo4 preferably

The Saiko Distributor stepped up the battery current from 14/12 to 19 volts to power the TV..

Then I ran two different cable from the same battery which supplied 12 volts to both my fan and the decoder....Just to keep the decoder safe from overheating due to high voltage, I had someone run a 12 volt mosfet which stepped down the battery's 14.4 volts to 11.8/12 volts for the decoder.

Then I attached a female cable to a car charger in such a way that I could plug it into any of the 12 volt cables and charge my phones...by my estimate, only charging that way can charge my phone more than 30 times...

Powering the TV and decoder alone this way lasted for about 20 hours on a single battery charge.

Powering the fan alone lasted for about 36 hours with no reduction in fan speed...

Powering all together lasted about 13 hours

NB...TV power consumption measured by a watt meter is 16 watts...pics of the TV's model sticker, fan, and the DC converter is attached to this post...

Fan is an Itel 12-volt rechargeable fan....consumes 9 watts at low settings

I didn't bother measuring the decoder's power consumption because it obviously consumed so little...

I have sold the set-up due to relocation tho..but if for any reason I have to go off-grid, I will go totally DC... DC bulbs, DC TVs, Rechargeable sound systems, DC fans, etc...i hear there are even DC fridges these days....

Inverters are fast going obsolete for those who have simple power needs..They waste power, and are extra item to maintain and repair..

But if you need to power ACs, washing machines and other heavy household stuff with battery power, I don't think you can dodge Inverters...Very expensive Inverters and similarly expensive batteries
And can the saiko DC distributor work with lead acid battery because you wrote lifepo4

great,
Thanks
I've been thinking of doing something like this before now, pls where can I get that saiko DC distributor?
I already have, DC fan, DC sound system and also this 5v to 12v cable to power decoder using power bank
I'm about buying DC bulb as well
I only need the DC distributor and how much

Idaytesj29:
Hostages can only be released when you negotiate, which there isn't one on gound. And With all the dead Palestinians you still expect any hostages to be released to you? You guys don't think at all, you just talk. So, if you are Hamas, you will release such hostages?
You think Israel even care about those hostages again? I don't think so, they already lost hope on them, but this hamas, they want to completely destroy them

Foreign Affairs › Re: Iran Supreme Leader Khamenei Retreats To Bunker, Names Successors If Killed by bonetalk(m): 5:56am On Jun 22, 2025
malali:
Most likely the US will kill him, but guess what there will be another supreme leader.

The Ideology of the new supreme leaders coming, might even be more radical than the current one.

The only way Iran can be safe its to have its own Nuclear weapons.

Look at North Korea......No one dare messes with them.

That north Korea, dem never get his time besides, he no dey sponsor terrorists like Iran is doing

Thank you supreme leader khamenei for standing up for the weak people of Palestine/Gaza
You are a Hero, regardless of the propaganda and the narrative.

Get the 3000w from him, I have used it and it's very very cool.

Let me mention something.... We all know that we can't touch any wire linked with satchet inverters while switched on without perfect insulation. This is not the case with all Easun inverters, no risk iof electrical shock

By the way I don't have such inverter.

When a system works, it is fine.

500w inverter powering a freezer along with initial surge is amazing. Some 1.5kva cannot do it.
Pls what's the brand name of the 500w inverter?
