I just signed up to participate in my church’s Trunk or Treat. I want to power one of my Philcos from an inverter powered by the truck battery. I’m considering one of these 3:
37-610T bullet,
1935 66S, with a 66B chassis installed,
Or my 1936 620B tombstone.
My question is what wattage inverter would I need to power one of these, and would it drain my battery too much at 2 hours of use?
Thanks for any help, tips or suggestions!
(I also want to power a tabletop Tiffany lamp, with a low wattage led bulb.)

Blessings,

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
