A inverter is a wonderful thing, just connect to your car battery and
let engine idle. for a 100 bucks you can get a thousand watt inverter,

flatscreen on my outdoor HDTV antenna.

Cable typically dies when the back up batteries die, although my tivo
has a couple hundred hours of recorded shows in stock
