Hello amigos,
Just passing along my findings in hopes to help anyone looking to add air condition to their vehicle without robbing HP. I found an affordable 12 volt AC compressor on Amazon. Here the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09661D1ZY/ref |

I think it would be wise to note that typically the Compressor isn't on 100% of the time. Once the cabin is cool, and we have a tiny cabin, it gets under 50%. So you won't need 100% of the amps 100% of the time.
They seem to say this comp is designed for RV refrigerators, so it might be inadequate for the heat load of the cabin. So it might be on all the time anyways. Also, alternators are rated at a high RPM. So 90a at say 5000 rpm but only 20a at idle. There is a chart for the 914 alternator in the brochure. Might want to plug in an old school amp meter from the days before the volt meter became standard. |
