Yes, an invertor is just a portable power plant that runs off the battery.

DSE have an 800Watt model

I would be more inclined to say that its a transformer that runs off the alternator. sure would suck alot of juice without the vehicle running :)

There is a rectifier in the alternator before it goes to the battery. Also, when you speed up in your car, the alternator spins faster, so the output frequency would change.

You can get a 12v dc to 240ac inverter for the car... friend used one to power a comp. I dont know if it will go good for your subs though. PSU was only like 300wat. if that.

if you are going 240v get another car battery installed and run it off the 2nd battery.
