What route do you go to power your projector?

Thanks! It was a cheap LCD model from amazon. They are regularly around $70 USD, but since I wasn't really sure at all this would work, I waited till black friday and got it for around 50 bucks. On super bright days the holes in the stitching messes with the image quality (cheap projectors are not bright), so I recently bought a cheap pvc coated projection screen to bungee in place for midday projector use. I'm very optimistic about image quality with the screen! This little model I have has a PVR feature, so I think you might be able to record to a USB thumb drive... I haven't tried that, have just been taking photos of the burbot and pike as we land them so far
For power, I have a little 300 watt inverter and a fancy 50AH lithium ion battery. I calculated the run time at one point and it worked out to essentially a full day of fishing with the family. This year I've upgraded both cameras to 10AH lithium batteries so even after the big one is dead, I can stay out a bit later for the night bite after they go back to shore
