  • 7 amps per 150' roll

LED rope light:

  • .73 watts per foot (37 watts per 49.2' roll)
  • ? amps per 49.2' roll

Batteries

Battery ratings are amp-hour which gives you the constant amps output for 20 hours. A battery rated at 30amp-hours will give you 1.5 amps for 20 hours. AGM (a nice, safe, lead-acid type) runs about $100-$200 for a battery in the 30-55 amp-hour range.
