Is the fuse on the input side or output side? How many watts is the invertor?

Gut feeling is the input wire should be 12g. That should cover any usage limits.

12g on the input side will be fine. You should be able to get at least 150 mini lights running without a problem.

Can't this work if you were to cut the plug off a string of 110 volt party lights and wire it to a pull switch. In my case I've got (4) 12 volts, so I'd just wire to one battery then? Doesn't seem right. I need to hook it to the whole pack at 48 volts, and then it would still be running at less than half power than the 110 volts it wants. Now that's AC vs. DC right so that's a factor as well. I guess these are 12 volt party lights here. Sorry for my confusion and talking out loud.

Digging up this old thread as I was looking for 12v lights and wanted to see what others may have done here. Didn't find anything here but came across a website that really made the bulb light up! Turning cheap 120v string lights into a 12v or 36v string is actually real easy. The webpage describes using non-LED lights but those could be done also with just a slightly different line splice method that is pretty easy to figure out if you understand that LEDs only flow juice in one direction.

10 or so vampire clips and that 120v string is ready for 12v input.
