"House bank 12 X 6V Golf cart"

Although a lot of beer might be needed to move them , using larger batts , rather than a dozen would be more efficient.

No more than 4 batts to a string works best if you keep with golf carts.

A single Ser: 31 will start a Ford in cold weather , lots lighter than an 8D.

Look at Surette for some batts made up of 2V cells bolted together.

This will eat the output of a DN-50) bus alternator 250-300A in 12v or 24V

The inverter needs to be of the boost style that can add current to a weak dock or noisemaker output.

That would allow a smaller noisemaker , that could be run closer to full load more of the time..


And first item to purchase would be a SOC , state of charge meter, so you know where the batt set is in terms of charge percentage at all times.

There are many other brands ,,,but these are good for the House set..

For Start batts , Sears or any chain store is fine as they are easy to kill, and a guarentee swop might be required.
