For some time now I have been toying with the thought of putting together
a battery system to run my station during emergencies . I have however
little knowledge and no training or experience on how complete such a
project . My station consists of a Orion II , Centurion amp and a
computer. Can anyone point me in the right direction for help in building
such thing ? thanks

John:
The centurion is best run on 220V, So that is something to consider,
110V at the high current need for amplifier is a strain on batteries and
equipment.
APC power, has a MATRIX unit that will provide 220V and takes battery packs
suitable for indoor use, at 5500 KVA with 220 Volts, a 4 batter pack will
handle the load for a fair period of time.
Hope this helps some.
Best wishes,
