240V inverter to make coffee??

[teK--]

@DMan is after something that Mrs Dman can quickly and with little energy produce a coffee with milk while she is having a break during a 24 hour event.

Caffeine shots ! All the buzz without the acidity and after taste

Yes. KV× 0.8= kw roughly. They reckon aircons are one of the hardest. Depending on brand, start up can be over double.

any electric motor ( eg AC compressor) will draw roughly 6 x FLC (full load current) on start up unless it is being driven by a soft starter and this needs to be factored in when sizing your genset!
some generators will trip not because of overload or stalling but actually trip on earth fault caused by harmonics and transient currents in equipment like inverters and electronic based items..some gens you can bypass the RCD but many of the smaller type easy carry Honda's and the like you cannot!

 

[fatboyonabike]

Don't see why you can't do it. You would want decent cable though for 120A, 3 or 4 B&S??

WTF.........B&S.....Straya mate, square mil here bloke
fuckin BnS, fuck America!

That is why the big praise for soft start equipment.

Pfft, clearly you're a novice. This is on top of the caffeine shots and no doze.... for me as pit crew. You don't want to even know what she takes

30 junkies just got in their cars headed for SE QLD, wondering which 7eleven to stop at for lube.

 

[Ackland]

30 junkies....... stop at for lube.

You must know some very considerate junkies.....

But I like to spoon while holding my maglite... Good luck sleeping

That Makita is pretty damn cool! But I think I'll just stay with a gennie for now. Coffee at NEMBO is on me kids..

 

[cooki_monsta]

i have a pod machine in my work ute, runs off a pure sine 3000/6000w inverter.

make sure its pure sine, and they are most efficient at about 80% max load

 

[rowdyflat]

that makita one is pretty clever

 

[fatboyonabike]

seems like a lot of faffing around just for a hot cup of coffee...why not just an aeropress and food warmer with precooked goodies in it?

 

[binner]

............another hot tip from Binner, hot dogs/ cheerios in a thermo flask filled with boiling water for winter post rides. Always a win....

Don't know how aeropresses work, but everything needs to be hot for 30+ hours by the time Mrs Dman is starting to look for it
