Have some jobs coming up that require a vacuum lift for setting stones with the excavator. The vacuum lift I have draws 12.54 amps at 120volts according to manufacturer.
My Machine, Cat 305e2 has a 60ampere alt and a 650CCA battery. Math shows the alt will never keep up with a 200o watt inverter. But the lift will only be turned on for 30 seconds at a time with at least 5 minutes between uses. Will my battery safely produce the rest of the wattage required to run an inverter to power the lift without interfering or damaging my machines electronics or charge system?
