Hope this is not the wrong place to post this. Sorry if it is:
2 questions. My local Black and Decker outlet has several grades of DC to AC inverters to give me AC voltage from 12-24V DC. I would like to photograph trains at night Ala Winston O Rorke ( I may have his name wrong ) I have several White Lightning Mono lights from 10K - 15K light output. 1st would a larger inverter run off my pickup battery power these for a one shot deal? 2) I was told I may really upset the engineers by hitting them with a big flash at night. Here in Wyomissing junction we get lots of traffic at night and I can get within 10' of the tracks without trespassing. I'd appreciate any feedback on what you think about this. This is in the Reading, PA area and would be mainly NS with possible Reading & Northern. Thanks, Dave
