how many amps of power to run this unit?
1042298
I don't know the amps needed, I use one of the "booster" 12v units to power it without any problems.

im not 100% sure without looking. guessing by how small the wires are on the leads, its less that 5. If i remember correctly it was in the range of 1.5 to 3 at the most

700/800/1500 watt settings, thats about 13.5 amps, a standard residential circuit will handle it, IF there is nothing else being used on that circuit.

36 watts is 3 amps on a 12 volt system. Depending on how many you use, you could run 4 on a 15 amp fuse/ switch.

This unit only draws 50 watts, half an amp. A 100 watt inverter plugged into your cars 12V plug is more than you'll need to run this unit in a car.

This unit will operate from 100 to 120V and will draw between 12.5 to 14 amps of current depending on the input voltage.

A 15 amp grounded circuit can handle 1800 watts. This unit uses 1500 watts. I would not have anything else on the same circuit except perhaps one 100watt light bulb. I found my unit only heated within 3 feet,so I returned it. Maybe I got a lemon,but my heater was not an effective source of heat.

Just barely. The sticker on it said the max amperage is 17.4 amps x 115 volts = 2001watts. I would go with a larger unit so you don't burn something out. I run with a 3500 and it does good but you have to be carfull not to run any other high power appliance with it.

I wounit push eny more then 3amps i run mine at 5v 0.5 amp. But i don't know there max. -Hope this helps and good luck

This unit runs on USB power. There is no need to plug this into an electric socket.

It depends on what voltage you are going to, and which voltage you are coming from. Using V=P/I, where v is voltage, p is power, and I is current, this device can handle approximately 13 amps at 220 to 110, and 27 amps at 110 to 220. I wouldn't run it anywhere near that for safety reasons, and these are rough numbers, but I hope they help.

"350 Watt or greater power supply with a minimum of 18 amps on the +12 volt rail." Taken from the box. Hope this helps!

I really don't know how many amps it requires. It sit on my kitchen counter, does not take up a lot of room and although not fancy it does the required job. I live in an apartment.

This unit will put out 62.5 amps on 120 volts circuit. Please note there are (2) 20 amp circuits and one 30 amp circuit so you would have to split the items up over the three different circuits. Each item that you are trying to run will have the usage on the back of it. You will have to do the math to come up with what your usage will be with all the items plugged in.

According the the spec sheet this units runs 8.6 amps when cooling and 11.1 when heating. I ran its own 20 amp 12awg line and it works perfect.

The current draw is rated at 60 amps for this unit. At 230 volts, that comes to 13800 watts. That's the peak. It will usually run much lower than that.Also, as an answer, why reply with "I don't know"?

Glad to help! Is the 13.5 number you mentioned the Amp load? The Amp load is one of the two pieces of information that would be very helpful. The other would be how long you would estimate the AC unit would be running per 24 hours. With those two pieces of information we can calculate how many panels would be needed and the battery bank size needed for your power storage requirements. Regards, Lisa, for Explore Electric

I believe it would work. You need 10 amps at 12 volts (120 watts or 120 volt-amps). This unit can supply 12.5 amps at 12 volts.
