So looking at an inverter option for the Elec-Trak I see Ryobi has an 18volt 8 battery inverter that can put out 1800 watts.

With Ryobi batteries of course but I wonder if I could "build" anadapter for the Elec-trak as it does use two packs at a time to poweritself....


Either feed it 36 volts outright or tap a pack at the 18v point. Hm......
