|
|
I have built a 14v dual battery, dual alternator system. (Z14). I live
in AZ and am interested in installing an air conditioning system. In
researching a/c systems, I'm uncomfortable with the added mechanical
complexity of running hoses and the engine driven compressor into the
engine compartment. I concede that this may be a more efficient means of
generating the power for the a/c, but it adds complexity/weight and a
load in an area that I would prefer not to. I have identified a couple
of sources that provide 28v AC systems. I have too much invested into my
build re 14 v components to warrant redoing the electrical system (to
28v). So in noodling it seems to me that _conceptually_ one should be
able to take a feed from each of the 14v systems and couple them
together to produce the 28v required for the ac unit. So, for those of
you further along the electro learning curve than I, is this
_practically_ possible? If so what components would be required to make
the connection to produce 28V?
Thanks in advance for any consideration and input.
PS Thanks for all of the input on the IPOD connect
