Hello everyone,
Is there a tested solution by now to charge Inspire1 batteries on the field? Not sure if the way to go is by Power Inverter + regular bat charger (true sine wave inverter according to posts, car running all time), Car Charger (like some found on Amazon, Ebay, etc), Gas Power Generator, 12 volt Jump Starter Kit or some other means?
Have 3 batteries now , getting 3 more (TB48's), but it would be nice to be able to charge a battery or remote control in case of an emergency, even if at the rate of one at a time.
Have researched this topic but there seems to be no definite solution up to this point yet.
Thanks for any help.

     Personally I use a 1500 watt invertr that I connect directly to the battery,  I also own a 350 watt inverter for charging my Ipad and occasionally a battery on the way to my destination.  Make sure if you do this to run the engine now and then to make sure you dont drain your battery.

Got it, I would probably use it while driving from one place to another, usually for a period of about one hour more or less. Is your 350 inverter a true sinewave or modified model?

      Modified Sine wave on the 350  and  the 1500.  Never had any trouble whatsoever.  They come in very handy.

don't intend to sound like I am bragging but fir information, I travel in a motorhome and it has a 2000 Watt inverter and a generator. The batteries, I pads, and the controllers charge perfectly on either source.
