Battery back up for pellet stoves?

[nanama72]

We've been having a lot of brown outs lately and it makes us nervous. Aside from a generator that you can only run in your garage, does anyone have any recommendations on an affordable battery that the pellet stove could be plugged into for a day or two? It seems it would need to be rechargable. Any ideas? Thanks.

Yep, as catfish mentioned, take a look at that thread he included in his post. The marine battery & Inverter he mentioned sounds great, but he stated it would only run his stove for 12 hrs. if you want something that will last for 24-48 hours, you might have to go the generator route (or maybe 2 batteries hooked in parallel for more capacity).

Thanks, I don't know how I missed that. But would it be two marine batteries or two stove sentry batteries to get more time?

two batteries, one inverter

As Tink said, 2 batteries, and one Sentry....the Sentry is not a battery, just an inverter that gets connected to the marine batteries
