Oh yes.. Of course my primary sation is a 100 watt Kenwood TS-2000 (Well, sometimes it's only a 20 watt if I'm doing PSK) with computer and a few other goodies hooked up

It runs off 232 amp hours worth of U-220's with a 3-stage charger (Progressive Dynamics PD 9180 w/wizard) Been doing it since 2006 when I got it save for one 24 hour stretch last year (Field Day) I really like that set up.

IN the old days I ran a 2-mtr rig off a floating battery but had a few issues since it was not a 3-stage charger. The battery life was not nearly as good as today.
