New Field Day Battery Source




For what it's worth...

Perhaps there will be a new "operating class" for this years "Field Day"? It seems the new "Hybrid's" on the market contain a 30 KW DC generator that can be tapped for power by using a DC to AC inverter ?

According to the article in this months issue of "Popular Communications Magazine" , some owners of these Hybrid vehicles use their "cars" for emergency generators when the power goes out in bad weather. They power their homes (lights and refrigerators) with them.

What a novel idea....http://wa8lmf.net/bruninga/FD-Prius-Power.html

A tent, transporter, and air conditioner all built into one.

I'm puzzled....how would you classify this mode on field day?
How should I sign....
