How many power inverters can be put on one battery?

Question:
I am looking to run several tools out of my truck / van and I can get a seperate battery (auto battery) put into the van to do this. I was thinking about getting one really big inverter or 2 smaller ones. I would rather get the 2 smaller ones, but I dont know if it possible to connect both to one battery. Any ideas. Thanks RLM

You can hook as many inverters as you like to one battery but..
the real question is... how long will the battery last while using these inverters? I don't know what you are trying to run off the inverter(s?) or for how long. A good setup would be 2 deep cycle batteries(do NOT use regular starting batteries, they will not last) wired to a battery isolator and your truck/vans battery. This would allow all the batteries to charge once the engine is started, but would prevent the inverter batteries from draining your starting battery if you did not have the engine running. Hope this helps!

What are the yellow sections on most roads called?

I don't think it really matters, one big or two small. It's the current drain that matters. Can your alternator handle the load? There are devices that allow you to connect two batteries to a car and the second battery will not drain the first one, but it will still assist the first battery if it's voltage is below the second battery.
I hope this helps a little.

It's best to checkout the input & output capabilities of all the devices used. It is all about input & output performance & calculations to find out how many devices can be attached to the battery without stressing & causing damage to it.
