I am bored at work and come up with this idea. I am a PC Tech and not an electronic expert.
But, I am thinking of way to get current off of a battery when I'm camping so I don't have to re-charge it.
I mostly camp at hike in campground, so it's not convent to walk out all the time to re-charge a battery.
I have a 110V Battery Charger. Can I connect a 150W inverter to the 12V Battery, plug the Battery Charger into the inverter to run the battery charger, then connect the battery charger back to the battery to re-charge it while it's running the inverter?
So the battery keep charging while I connect the light directly to the battery terminal?
Or will it blow up or short out somewhere?
EDIT: Here's a diagram that might help explain my idea. But I am wondering since the current coming out of the battery into the inverter to the battery charger back to the battery to charge it up, if it will work that way, and connect the lights directly to the battery, might only be about 2 or 3, 7 Watt light bulbs.
