is it possible to power haysteamer by leisure battery?

[cumbriamax]

Hi I don't have mains power on my yard but preffer to feed steamed hay better as good for horses and they don't like soaked hay as much, I currently steam hay at house and take it to yard or take kettles to steam it with but as I'm hoping to use battery power to light yard soon I was wondering if anyone had powered a small steamer this way(or even kettles). I will recharge batteries regularly so that wouldn't be problem!

any other suggestions welcomed!

many thanks!

Not unless you can invent a portable battery that delivers 3 kilowatts of power for five minutes and if you could do that you'd have enough money to put mains electricity in

Heat takes an awful lot more power than light I'm afraid. I asked my resident engineer if you could use a car boil-in-mug heater but he says that for the quantity of water you need it will either never boil or the battery will go flat anyway. Sorry
