Hey guys. Not sure if any of these vendors were in the houston/galveston area, but here In Corpus Christi, I saw a vendor selling this power inverter which he said can run your lights, fans, and tv for up to 16 hours. The recharge on this is done by plugging up to a marine or your very car battery via the included jumper cables and running your car for 20 minutes to recharge. Now you are ready for another 16 hours. The company is called apsi power. You can see a demo at apsipower.com. The small one costs $499.
