Ten 60 W bulbs would need 600 W, and a 12 v battery would therefore have to supply 50 amps. A 50 amp-hour car battery would theoretically supply that for one hour, but in practice the capacity is reduced when the load current is high. So a car-battery would do the job for about half an hour. To last for eight hours overnight would need 8-10 car batteries connected in parallel.

To run ten 60-watt bulbs, you would need a battery capacity of at least 600 watt-hours (10 bulbs x 60 watts = 600 watts). Keep in mind that for practical use, it's recommended to oversize the battery to account for inefficiencies and ensure longer run times.

How many 3watt bulbs can be run off a 500va transformer?

To determine how many 3-watt bulbs can be powered by a 500VA transformer, divide the VA rating of the transformer by the wattage per bulb: 500VA / 3W = 166.66 bulbs. In this case, you can power approximately 166 bulbs with a 500VA transformer.
