Re: Modern AC Compressor in a 6-Volt Car

Given the original system didn't use a clutch why not bolt the thing solid?

In a TXV system the only reason to cut out the compressor is to reduce horsepower draw. The rest of the time the condenser will be metering less freon for the reduced heat load.

In a state like Texas the compressor will be running all the time anyway.
