    more electrical power out of a cucv system

    I did search some more and found some 24V dc roof top air conditioners but they are pretty pricey and are not here in the U.S. so I think shipping would be expensive also. I also had some time to think about it and I beleive I am better off with a 120v unit with an inverter. I can then plug...

    more electrical power out of a cucv system

    thanks for the reply, I am looking at the rv roof top ac units, I have not found any that were direct 24volt. most of those that are, are freezer units. I will look some more but the smallest rv roof top ac unit is 9000 btu with two speed fan and it only pulls 13.5 amps at 120v so yes I have...

    more electrical power out of a cucv system

    splitting the output of the drivers side alt by taking it to the 12 volt terminal block (it actually already goes there) and add a seperate 12 volt battery then also feeding it into the second alt (which it already does). Therefore you can take a 200 amp 12volt alt. on the drivers side and...

    more electrical power out of a cucv system

    https://www.qualitypowerauto.com/catalog.php?item=551 this is one I have considered. I need to stay with two twelve volt alternators. If I were to put in a 24 volt and keep one twelve volt it puts more stress on the belts. If I had a serpentine system It would not be a problem. Using two...

    more electrical power out of a cucv system

    looking to get all 100 amps out of the 24 volt system to go into an inverter for electric ac unit. and 100 amps at 12 volt to run the truck 12 volt items. should not need all 100 amps at 12 volt unless i put a serious stereo system and that is not the plan so using a 200 amp 12 volt alt. and...

    more electrical power out of a cucv system

    just looking at ideas for more electrical power, I was checking on alternators and have found replacements for the 27si that can go to 200 amps or more. They don't have isolated grounds so it does not help to get more 24v power but could provide more 12v power without sacraficing any of the 24v...
