How many amps does this unit pull? Nothing in the literature addresses amp requirements. Thanks.

the one I have is 500 watts--500 divided by 110 volts = 4.54 amps. simple formula watts divided by volts = amps used

I believe the unit would pull 20 amps so a kitchen circuit should handle the load. Hope this helps

I purchased it for use with a refrigerator ................have no idea of the amps used but doubt it is near 20

1 Amp. I would not buy this item if you plan to use it more than once. I kept it well ventilated and ran it under the usage rating but it still quit working after a month. Waste of money, spend a little more and get something better.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I had the unit packed up in a storage unit but I brought it out today. I'm sure i'm to late with this info for you but maybe it will help someone else. It's Amps used are 4.6 I set it up today, the bedroom upstairs was 86 inside. After about 2 hours it had dropped down to a comfortable 73. I'm sure by bedtime it will be in the upper 60's which is where I like to keep it if I can.

My unit uses 35W and needs AC100-120V which is a regular wall current.you can purchase one that needs more Wattage

I believe the pump itself operates on 12vac and probably draws less than 1-2 amps. I recently purchased a replacement unit and it is still working OK.

It pulls 20 amps. Make sure you have a good ground. Do not attempt to make coffee at the same time, breaker will pop.

Im not sure. I used this for a sub box for my car,and I have 3500 watts running threw the set. And my amp is rated at 300 amps, as far as how much power it is pulling. Hope that helps some.

I don't know the amps needed, I use one of the "booster" 12v units to power it without any problems.

How many amps does your compressor pull? It may be too many for such a small inverter.

I do not have the answer to the number of amps.. there is nothing to say that. whatever description U see on the add is what U get. So far I have not had to use it - it make a big noise for the taiser..

It limits. I have a device that pulls to much and it just stays warm, while only drawing max of 6 watts from the wall. I calculated this at 1.17 amp, which is as advertised. Used it a couple days at max (waiting for the 3 amp unit to arrive) and it didn't crap out.

60 amp fuse.. So at full volume it draws at least 30 to 60 amps.. I'm about to get a second one as it does bump for Da price

Mine has a 15 amp fuse, I have run this temporarily overloaded and shorted resulting in a blown fuse, with it surviving. I did however have one unit fail, after running it overloaded for too long, from excessive heat.

115vac 3 prong, 2 amps when dumping ice into bin, 1.6 amps while making ice. So far it's working great in my rv. I only checked previous questions and copied this answer here, sorry, I can't lift it to read, but this seems correct. It's a great little unit if a little noisy...Hope this is helpful. Viv
