I've looked at that busking site before. Honestly, it leaves me more confused than enlightened. Watts, amps, deep cycle, inverters...I'm a musician, not an engineer, and I am admittedly jealous of those who speak both languages A generator would be overkill for me, I should think. The Pedal Juice that Bill posted seemed like a good option, and it sounds expensive until one starts looking at the alternatives. I've read of folks attaching a suitable power connector to a breadbox with a bunch of AAs, but that would only work as a battery replacement; the Rang needs AC.
