13.5 Volts is as high as i can go with just 5 caps. But i couldn't get them up that high, as my solar panel is only 2.5 volts :/ (so 12.5 max)

I live on the east side of my building, so you can imagine how many days it would take to charge each cap individually or in parallel, lol

The inverter I have runs until around 10.5 volts, possibly lower, but it starts to scream to signal the battery voltage is low, so I don't know how low it actually can go.

Lasted about 10 mins with this load.

I like it. Maby using the maximum input voltage for the inverter would be beneficial. Perhaps 14 volts. I made a battery pack using a series of C or D cells to make about 14 volts inside a pvc pipe, rechargeable ones would of been great. That boom box is perhaps a medium power (required) device where the bass frequencies take a huge chunk of that. A small radio would probably last several hours on that.
