How many amps does each 5ft mat draw
1943541
I have placed three mats daisy chain to one 15 amp breaker. They go out at first snow and stay there all winter. Two later get separated out and move around together to get rid of the ice. There has to be a way to get rid of the melted ice/water. Otherwise, when you move the mat, you have slice sheet of ice.

The lights draw 1.5a each. Here is a link to a conversion table for future reference. http://rapidtables.com/calc/electric/Watt_to_Amp_Calculator.htm

5 amps tends to work best. If you go with a lower power they will not be as bright and technically it can handle more but it will shorten the life of the LEDs.

Volts x Amps= watts so watts divided by voltage = amps. 80/12=6.66 amps. It certainly draws quite a bit more during startup.

120 Volts, 60 Hz; continueous draw = 12.5 amps, minimun draw = 5 amps, BTU = 2,050-5,200; power use = variable from under 50% to 1,50eatts @ 100%.

It draws 5 amps at 12 volts, so using the standard formula P=EI (watts =volts X amps), wattage is 60.

They need 12 volts DC, the whole strip needs if I recall needs 2 amps. Not sure of the formula to calculate for part of a strip.

The rule of thumb for motors is they will draw 3 to 6 times their nameplate current (depending on load). A vaccuum has no real starting load (much like a fan) so 3 times is typical. This in-rush current is short lived (mili-sesconds). It is very likley that a 5 amp motor will NOT overload the 900W inverter with 1800 watt peak. The only way to truly know is to test it.

LEDs strips draw very low power, these strips consume appox. 1 Amp per 3.5 feet at 12 Volts. Most kits are 16.4 feet with a 12 Volt 5 Amp power supply. If you want to make your own custom length divide the total length by 3.5 then round it up to the next full number and that will give you the amps required at 12 volts. (Ex: 50' length divided by 3.5 = 14.3 round up to 15 Amp Power supply) Jim Carlson, Master Electrician

I believe 200. We put 4 of these on the sign at the entrance of our subdivision, powered by solar charged battery system. They draw only .25 amps each at 12 vdc and fully illuminate our sign

Measured Draw at 13.2volts is 2.4 Amps, just purchased the product in December and connected to a Voltage/ Amp draw meter and there is no initial "strong" draw, just constant draw at 2.4 amps, this unit is running off a battery storage unit, charge by solar panels, for my fish pond in my Aquaponics System

Assuming there is a constant 12 volt direct source, the pump is going to draw 3 to 5 amps. amps x volts = watts. At 5 amps that would be 60 watts. With a battery in line it would work. Straight off a 50 watt solar panel probably not so well.

I believe they use a 55 watt bulb, so at 12 volts, that's a bit under 5 amps.I use 2 of them on a 10amp fused circuit, hasn't blown yet.

Amps I have no idea... I do know that it is very powerful, amazing in fact. I have "shag" area rugs & it works wonderfully on them.

Generally only one, and that one has to be less or equal to the total watts of the mat. There are larger rated units for more watts if needed.

The current will be inversely proportional to the voltage plus the inefficiency. You can expect about 11 to 12 amps at full current operation.
