Ive got a co worker that installed some christmas lights on a gate. There is no electricity on or near the gate, so he put a deep cell battery out there with an inverter. He has a timer plugged into the inverter then to the christmas lights. The problem is the inverter has a fan that stays on and it drains the battery. Is there a way to put the timer before the inverter so that it only comes on when in use and not drain the battery? Any help would be appreciated.
