    i'm guessing this must be the type of thing electric cars use? i guess if wired through a relay or fused to battery they may be ok? better than them plugh in fans anyway.

    I only have to drive 3 miles. Do think this will hammer the battery / alternator.

  7. I have one. And it isn't much cop. But that's my opinion. It is being removed this weekend.

    But did it work during the summer?:)
     
  9. Yes, in all probability such a demand + short run will result in a net Discharge of your battery.
