Re: Beating a Dead horse - 6v AC

If the Sanden Compressor clutch requires 7.5 volts with a max of 49 watts, then that is a max of 6.5 amps. With 12 volts at 49 watts, thats 4 amps max.

So why not get a 6 > 12v voltage step-up converter that is rated to handle that amperage with a constant load.

I know they sell those step-up convertors to run 12v radios in 6v cars and most radios with internal amplifiers pull between 5 and 10 amps constant. So it may be a good fit.

Just floating an idea.
