connecting equipments to battery questions...

[I-car]

If I have a stand alone 12v 100AH battery, how long can it power a 1000w equipment?

what kind of battery is best for powering equipments? deep cycle battery? wet cell? dry cell? I need to use it for commercial purpose so i need it to be heavy duty.

is 2000W inverter plug to battery save to power a 1600W equipment like steamer?how big a battery capacity in order to power up to 1 hour?

thanks!!

its a bit like tony has said , and the others to run what you want continus then id go for the genny to power a 1600 watt steam washer through a 12 volt 100 am hour battery will give you approximatley 15 seconds ( yes i have done alsorts of experiments )with a 2kw or 3kw genny then you'll cover your self they are quite cheap
