Speaking of which...
Has anybody tried running small amps (like practice amps) through one of those "jump-start" battery backs you see in auto parts stores these days? Some even have a 110 v AC outlet so you don't have to use an inverter.
Here's an example, although Schumberger and Peak Power have their own models:

They range from about $60 for a 600 peak amp to about $90 for a 1000 peak amp, plus more if you want an air compressor ...
I'm wondering if they'd give about four or five hours with a practice amp, which is all I'd really need. And as Bobby1note mentioned, you can use it for lots of other things, like camping, re-charging electronic doodads ... and starting cars.
