    Jim it all depends on what you are running.

    watts divided by 12 = amps

    if you run a 60 watt light divided by
    12 = 5 amps 60amp battery =12hours ?

    so i have been told

    I have one. Very handy. Not that noisy. Just run out a 30m lead and you won't hear it above the ambient noise.

    You should be able to run your tv, vcr, fridge and light as well.

    Cheers
