Does anybody know how many amps this thing draws?

The 12 volt cigarette lighter plug has a label that say 12 volts/10amps. There is a 10 amp/250 volt fuse inside the plug. It can only be said with any assurance that the light draws less than 10 amps.

It draws appx. 9 amps on start up and then draws a steady 7 amps after a few seconds...

Not sure how many amps it draws but I do know that the plug melts. First one melted, got a replacement and it did the exact same thing. We contacted the manufacturer and they insisted they had never heard of this happening and had us return the cord to them for review. Once, okay it's just malfunctioned or was bad but twice...we got our money back and now it sits in the garage and has stuff stacked on it.

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.

It does draw a lil current as long as you have 12v and about 3.2amps of current ur good i have it on a 5 amp fuse and it has never blown. It does use about 32 watts. now this is just what i have clamped it useing at run not fire up. Hope that helped

Mine is hooked up to 3 batteries about 100 AH each and with no load, it draws 1.43 amps. My meter is plus or minus 5% so it could vary slightly more or less. I hope that helps.

In theory, 11.8 amps. I wouldn't use it for anything much over 8 or 9 amps - that gives you almost a 1000 watts of power. Remember, 1000 watts means you will be drawing over 80 amps from your battery!

It does not have this information, but you can calculate, it has 7.00 amp and 120 v, the watts aprox is 850 watts.Regards

I'm not sure of the exact amps it draws but I used the lighter socket on my Harley FLHTK and it worked great! No melting or damage to bike or Slime pump.

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 has a USB charging station and I just use the kind you can by at the drug store. Sorry but I don't know the specifics on the amp draw!

Not sure but I googled the question before I bought it and got numbers like 5-7 amp draw maximums. Just returned from Alaska with mine full of fish that stayed hard frozen the whole way. One issue..when not on the road the unit light stays on but the temp rises. When parked I used a jump n carry battery and it was great. The rest of the time it was plugged into a standard power port of 12volts or a 120 outlet. Love it

It says 35 watts, but I'd like to know how that transfers to amp draw per hour.

Ok here you go it uses 10.5 amps you can use a 12 amp fuse if you can get it or 15 amp fuse ( check you wire size)

Not sure of the "current draw" but it must plug into a 110V outlet. Probably not much draw as it only works a circuit board and small fan.
