The Basic Power system is designed for automotive homes, recreational vehicles and commercial vehicles with limited electrical demands or equipment. The system satisfies basic power needs for 12 V lighting, radio/TV/DVD, a satellite dish, the refrigerator and a few 230 V devices, such as a laptop. The heart of the system consists of a sturdy and maintenance free gel or AGM battery. Used normally, the battery will deliver enough power for an entire day, independently of the engine alternator or grid voltage. This is especially practical considering the number of locations with no mains hook-up.
