I have read of 6/12 running AC on various other make forums. The one question would be how Classic does the charging of the second battery half when the AC is running. If they recommend it, then they must have developed a special switch, battery or circuit. That has been the issue for others but unknown if those with issues have used the classic setup or something they put together.

In light of what Dwight says about running the Sanden clutch on 6v I would also be curious if they could or would build an evaporator that could take one or two 6v heater motors and fans instead of the 12v setup. I know those 6v motors and wheels are smaller so a single heater motor/fan would not have the CFM of a 12 but maybe 2 would and current draw should not be any more than a 2 blower 53-4 factory trunk setup. Heater motors are available numerous places.
