Hi Folks,
I'd like to know what the Tesla 12V current spec is when attaching an inverter to the battery. What's the E-fuse trip point, actual spec? On the internet, just anectotal stuff like this: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/current-maximum-on-12v-system.31442/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- Chevy Bolt works at 1000W: I just ran an experiment, hooked a Harbor Fright Centech 2000W cont (really 1000W) with a 100A CB (WestMarine) in series with the 1 foot #2 cables clamped onto the 12V battery. I turned on the car with it in Park and left the keys on the seat. Initially I tested with a 8.3A parabolic heater for 30 minutes (drawing about 83-90A). The 12V battery (Dc DC converter output) rose to 13.1V, up to 15V after 30 minutes. Not sure why it *rose* under load. The dash started at 1KW right indicator (load) assume vehicle pumps etc - went to 2KW when heater was turned on. The Klimaire 2020 120VAC 1 ton (12000BTU) heat pump drew 6.5A (a bit less than the space heater). The Pioneer (also installed same time) is 6.5A at 120VAC (downstairs unit). So - now I can run a minisplit 1 ton heat pump for about 50 hours from a 80% charged (64KWH) Bolt battery. I'd like to test on the Tesla-Y but due to the picky 12V load monitoring, I'm told this is a no-no. Strange, you would think for a pricey car you could direct run a 12V:120V converter off the battery/DC-DC converter. The Leaf works like the Bolt does - but I'm told is only rated 90A not 130A like the Bolt. Have a renewable energy day, Mark Mark E.
