Household items. - 12.06.2010, 09:49 PM

I was trying to think of items that one might have around their household to keep from having to purchase anything, unless of course that someone is willing to do that just for this purpose. I am sure that there are several material things around ones house that may be able to put a load on a DC electrical system. Heating elements are one of the best for loads, but I am sure that there are several other items that may work. Creating a load bank with items that have a known wattage load would make the easiest setup. Like a 2000 watt hair dryer, or a 3000 watt heating plate, or waffle iron, but most of those are 120volt. So maybe a vehicle block heater or a drum warmer. One of the electrical gurus should be able to post up and give some other suggestions.

Im pretty sure all of the things you have listed are require AC voltage.
