Double Bass Portable Battery Amp?

[gypsydjango]

Is there a portable battery amp (Or Mains/Battery amp) available on the market, suitable for EUB?---for outside gigs. If so, your experiences most welcome. How long would the battery last?
Or is there such a thing as a small, silent generator to work my Gallien Kruger MB150 mains amp?

Do not know of any battery-powered amps. We looked two years ago.

For my son in HS Marching Band, this:

powered an old Peavey with 1x15 for entire football games.

Never ran out of juice and it already has wheels.
This same power inverter on wheels powers a much larger portable, outdoor bass rig in the Florida panhandle(brother-in-law's marching band's bassist).

I've used the CARVIN Sategmate for UB and slab. Its a 4-channel 100 watt PA in a 10" horn-loaded cab.

I use it as my PA/monitors for my bands. I've used it for outdoor battery-powered gigs. I use two of them and two extension cabs for mains and monitors. I use a seperate one for bass. It doesn't have much eq so I use a Fishman Pro Plat to give me the tone-shaping I need. I've had gigs w/two guitars, two vocals, bass and drums all battery-powered!

Is it as good as my MB150s? No, but there are concessions to be made for the battery-power.

I replace the CARVIN 7ah battery with two 9ah batteries and it lasts for a four-hour gig no problem (driving an extension cabinet).

Yes, a couple come to mind. The most obvious and most suitable that I can think of is the Phil Jones Briefcase.

Also, the Roland Micro Cube Bass RX.
