Re: Help on Ice shack
If you are going to buy batteries and inverters you would likely be better off with a suitcase generator. Maybe have a deep cycle hooked up to the 12 volt lights and a solar charger to keep topped off during the week.
If you go with multiple batteries check how much your accessories draw and add up to get a figure for how much battery power you need.
