@@CoburnLarsen I’m not sure I’d trust baggage with an L1 Pro16 even in this bag. Instead of flying it somewhere I’d advise you rent wherever you’re heading.

Don't know the answer to that one unfortunately. I'm not terribly familiar with the old L1 Compact. Sorry!

@@Silkaz7 yessir. Used a battery last night when the power went out at the venue. We were the only thing still running!

Yeah, under 300 watts at a few db under clipping. Subs pull power in burst though so you need enough output on the inverter to cover that burst, and enough watt hours in the battery to go for as long as you need to.

Pretty close. Maybe another 3-4db before clip.

Yep. You get a lot from a little.

Just trying to show how much power it pulls from the wall. I see the question all the time on forums and such and thought I’d just post some real world measurements for folks.

It's something I can refer people to. I get clients and such that want to know what they need for a generator or something to run speakers off grid. Just a way to know for sure that at 100+ db, they are still not pulling a ton of power.

Oh man....now I have to re listen to the video. Was it the sE v7? That might have been it. I'll let you know if not.

Confirmed sE v7

Check out my short that shows an EV ELX200-12P and its current draw. You can then estimate that your speaker is very similar to that. At 90% that speaker is drawing less than 150w. Multiply 150w times the number of hours you want to run it for and that’s how many watts hours of storage you need. In your case, 5 hours x 150w = 750 watt hours of storage and an inverter size of about 300 watts since you may occasionally go over that 150w estimate. Something like the Bluetti EB70S would do the trick but wouldn’t leave you much headroom. Something like the Bluetti ac180 would be a major upgrade and would allow for a lot more future expansion if you ever wanted to add to it.

@@peakaudio9715 oh man thanks so much. God bless.

@@peakaudio9715 One more dumb question if you please: Instead of buying a portable Power station, is there some Power Bank out there that I can use for 2-3 hrs?

@@FunDuude I think you’ll run into a problem with the inverter’s power capability. Stick to a power station.

@@peakaudio9715 . thanks so much.

Glad to hear it! You’re welcome!

It’s super tough to predict what each item will draw for you. For example, I have a 15amp SurgeX power conditioner that gobbles up power, like 200watts or something. For that, a River pro would run for like 3 hours. But your Furman may be different. I’m a fan of redundancy, so any time I can double or triple something, I like that. Your EKX’s are going to pull probably something like 150 watts when rip roaring loud each. The prime 4 is a smaller draw of around 40 watts or so. The HP laptop will chew up 100 watts if it’s not fully charged on arrival. If it’s fully charged, I’d expect 20-30 watts being used. A wireless mic is a pretty small draw too. Delta max would likely cover it just fine. I did an event tonight with a MacBook Pro and a zed10fx on one River pro and an evox j8 on the other River pro. Played music at a lounge volume for four hours and each box used about 25% of its battery. Lots of words I know but definitely some stuff to consider. I’d go for a delta max and then add to it in the future if necessary. Bigger batteries are better, until you can’t carry them.

​@@peakaudio9715 thanks for getting back to me quick. im about to get the delta max and run tests im in city limits so i have to purchase a loud music permit to test all day . i seen a video with one guy using 2 tops and 4 subs witha jackery so im going to try usinig 2 ekx 15ps and 2 elx 18s to see what happens. and its not going to be maxed out sound volume just enough for 100 people in a park so if it works for 4 hours with the delta max i will be happy lol..

@@djtwilite318 how did this wind up going for you?

@@peakaudio9715 they didnt have the gig so i didnt get the delta but i plan on getting them in the future and trying it.

I hope it works out good for you!

@@peakaudio9715 I bought the roller bag. LOVE IT! so much space for cords, mics , etc. Handles are everywhere on this thing. so easy to maneuver . Thanks for your video. very helpful. 😊😊

@@NeilTheHitman glad you’re a big fan! Enjoy!

I thought the same thing about Bose and Sweetwater. Glad the video helped!

I'm sure you could put in a sub one, however, you couldn't put a sub one in with an L1 Pro16. One or the other I'm afraid.

@@peakaudio9715 Hi, thank you for your answer. What about Boss L1 pro 32 plus Sub one ? Is enough space for this combination ?

@@stream9524 no idea unfortunately. I don’t have all of those items.

Glad it helped ya! I’d love to get down to Turks and Caicos one day! Currently snowing and 27° F here in Montana! Be well!!!

Hi, I know your comment is a year old. I’m in the same boat now with my QSC k12 love my set up but as a female soloist looking for an easier antidote without losing quality. Did you go with the Bose p.a?

I don’t have a sub match cable. Check with Bose?

How do u connect sub to the speaker?

@@Jacky-USA the speaker sets inside a port on the sub. Gravity holds it together.

What's up Bozeman! Bags are still in great shape. We have sent them out around 30-40 times this summer, no issues. Keep in mind, we handle them every time. We never let a client use them on their own. The only potential issue I see coming down the road is that we put a lot of lifting pressure on the front handles and when then are loaded, they seem like the weak point. Aside from that, great for piling gear into!

Just measured. 47”

Which speakers? I just ran two Bose l1 pro 16’s, 2x sennheiser EW-D wireless mics, and a prime4 for 4 hours hard on 2x River Pro’s with smart extra battery. Had about 30% remaining. I don’t have cdjs to test

@@peakaudio9715 Rokit krk 10s and would require 5 ac uk cables to run the into the battery. I am assuming you can use an extension cable with these. I’m thinking of eco flo delta. Any idea is that’s a good choice to have a setup running for 6-8 hrs

@@maxvallance8987 After looking up specs on the rokit 10's, I'd say you could run a pair of them off a delta for around 6 hours comfortably at full rip power. The CDJs etc., might take a fair amount as well. I'm sure that you're inverter size would be fine, just need capacity for how long you wish to run. The Delta Max would be the safer bet for long run times. I just don't know that particular equipment very well and really don't have much of a way of testing it for you. Any of the Deltas will certainly run the gear, just a matter of how long based on battery size.

Thanks that’s helpful. Do you think could build something. With the same capacity for cheaper?

@@maxvallance8987 I'm sure you could. But not THAT much cheaper. For me, the form factor, ease of connecting everything, and a handle makes it well worth the price of admission. An SOK 1200 watt hour battery is $600, you'd need to add an MPPT solar charge controller at $100, a 1000w inverter at $250 or so, a bunch of wiring at $50, tools to make proper crimps, etc at $75, something to attach it all to at $75, a dolly to move it around at $100...see what I mean here? Worth the price of admission to me.

Heck yeah! Glad you liked the video. There’ll be more when it slows down a bit!

Glad it worked out for you. It’s definitely a trade off with weight versus having thirty hands, but for me, it’s been worth it so far and I’m glad you feel the same! Be well Tim.

I think they do the trick for a small wedding but they run out of juice pretty quick. I am always checking the limit lights and having to make adjustments. I use them a lot more for background music and speaking which they completely excel at. I love them and I love their packaging and bag but they can’t take the roof off like a Bose L1 Pro16. Those are in another league when it comes to column arrays.

Super glad you are able to use the info. Sorry the video wasn’t better. I’ll get better with time!

Yep…they are huge, no doubt about it.

The bag completely defeats the purpose of keeping the system compact!

Pro 8 is different. Gotta search for a different bag for it.

I can see that point of view too. I particularly like what Yamaha did with the STAGEPAS 1k bag. Everything in one bag….and it comes WITH the speaker!

I agree. I have a L1 PRO 8 and I would like to find a store to sell me a sub bag or could be a model like this vídeo (but for L1 pro 8).

Got mine at Sweetwater

@@peakaudio9715 please, tell us the link.

I'll give it a try today. I've got a gig I'm taking a couple of these to. I'll see if I can't squeeze a mic stand in. I think a straight stand with a screw on base will go no sweat if I remove the base. Tripod base might be a little trickier.

Confirmed. I removed the base from my Hercules Straight Stands, and easily fit one, could definitely get two and probably some other stuff as well. This bag is really terrific for a carry all solution. I didn't even think about putting a mic stand inside, you're a genius!

@@peakaudio9715 thanks for sharing your experience!

You bet! Hope it helps!
