guitar amp generator
Hey, I don't know the following pieces of information:
1. If this is the right board
2. If this is the right section of the board
3. If my little side project is even possible
but still! I am going to put this question out there, for what appears to be a group of very savvy individuals.
My problem is this: I got it in my head a few days ago to create an Amp Backpack for my guitar. That is to say, I've got this amp right here:
https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/guitar_amplifiers/peavey/decade/
and i hope to make it "portable". I am entering Stanford University this upcoming fall, and hope to join its infamous marching band. The problem, however, is that I can't play any instrument besides the electric guitar. Given the general wacky nature of the band, however, i would imagine my little scheme would fit right in, and I could be a "portable electric guitar" station.
I am a definite newcomer when it comes to power generators and their usage, but I'm hoping someone out there can help me. I would imagine the actual "backpack conversion" part shouldn't be too hard (just tacking on some straps to the thing), but my real difficulty comes in powering the thing. How might this be done? Again, I know absolutely nothing about anything in this area. I am putting my trust in all of you.
The power specifics given on the back are :
10 W RMS
4 OHMS
120 Vac
60 Hz
50 WATTS
There is a plug labeled "12V DC IN", and it appears to be a half centimeter in diameter hole.
The device comes with a three pronged power chord.
So. Am I completely out of my mind? Is it possible to provide the power I need to make the guitar loud, yet run for a minimum of 30 minutes? When it comes to finding ways to "wear" these generators, I will work out some way. But do such generators even exist? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time,
