Battery recommendations for Guru
I know alot of people are going t chime in on the duracel power packs but when I look on amazon, the reviews of them are total garbage. Not sure if I should spend the money for a deep cycle battery or something else. atleast with a deep cycle, power wouldnt be an issue and you could run lights or a stereo

Try Advance Auto Parts. They carry the Schumacher battery packs that should run a Guru with no problem.

I’ve used this for my guru. Charge it prior to your event and it will last forever.

I use a Black and Decker, it's got the cigarette light plug to run the guru. Has teh a/c converter, lights, tire inflator and jumper cables.
You can run the guru on the a/c converter, but the battery fan sucks up power. I run two gurus at comps on it, going with a third this year.
