2012 chevy volt I believe is 16 amp? will a 30 amp bosch work?

16 amp is the standard charging cable that comes with most electric cars because it plugs into a standard 110v house outlet. The 30 amp is for a 220v outlet like those for electric dyers. you need a 220v outlet wired to a 30 amp breaker in your house breaker box. the 30 amp will work/charge the volt.

You will or should have a 30 amp. You have two charging levels. 6 and 12 amps or at least I do on my 2014. Be sure and get the 18 ft. cord with it.Tom

I installed the Bosch yesterday and I get a full charge in 3 hrs. As far as I know, the Volt can't take the full 30A however the charge time is superior than the portable charger supplied with the volt. I chose this model for any future vehicle upgrade. The price on the Bosch is roughly 1/2 from Amazon than from a retailer here in Australia.

I have a volt as well as a leaf and so far the bosch power max30 works fine.

The higher the amp the more electrical energy is sent. The car will charge faster.

It would, but, you would get a false reading. The gauge is designed to for a 36volt system, therefore you would be getting 0ne third reading or only 12volts. I suggest you get a gauge that is designed for 12volt system. Your local auto parts store has what you need. Hope this helps.

Mine was 30 amps. Used it for a trans brake and a line lock solenoid On my race car. Keep in mind use a in line fuse I use a 25 amp fuse to be safe.

Its a 21amp unit at highest pick a watt. 30 amp 2 pull breaker will do just fine.

Only if you have 110 volts most vans are 12 volts (if this is a vehicle you are talking about)

Yes it works, it's a 30 amp charger but you can buy a cheaper 15amp charger that also works for the volt.

i think it works. The plug is standard. I have my Chevy Volt. it took 12 hours on the standard 110v outlet to have fully charge. With the Bosch charger, now it takes 4 hours.

Yes- even is says 6 or 12 Volts- it will still check a 8 volt put the Red on the + side and the Black on the _ side and read the volts should read 7 or better --Then hold the load switch and it should read between 12 and 6 volt if is not a bad battery-Some of the old car restorers use 8 volt Batteries in what used to call for 6 Volt to make them turn over faster

I remember researching this before. The manufacturer won't say exactly. Read the forums on nPower. I might be able to figure it out with my multimeter when I get home. I thought theoretically, you could figure it out with an equation. it was enough to start my v6 2.1L engine. The inverter to ac isn't much. If my calc is right, 400W at 120V is only 3.3A on AC, but you can't expect much from a 12v battery. I thought dc was supposed to be infiinite, but I suppose you're looking for cranking amps. Overall, I was very pleased with how the nPower performed. I went a couple of months before finally diagnosing my car battery. The nPower got a fairly large engine through a cold Wisconsin winter with a bad cell in a relatively small car battery.

these are great for 12 volts DC.the relays will handle 14-18 volts DC. most vehicles have a charging rate of 13.8 to 14.2DC. the current coming out of your cigarette lighter/ charging ports is 13.8 to 14.2 volts. the alternator needs to put out that much current to keep your cars battery charged while operating all headlights, heater/ac blowers, defoggers etc. personally, I would not run more than 20 amps thru these. I do use these for lower amp projects but use better bosch brand relays for higher amp projects. look for relays sold by bosch or hella if you want a heavy duty relay. you will notice the big price difference when you look at the brand name products. there is a reason because of quality. these are great for 12 volts DC.the relays will handle 14-18 volts DC. most vehicles have a charging rate of 13.8 to 14.2DC. the current coming out of your cigarette lighter/ charging ports is 13.8 to 14.2 volts. the alternator needs to put out that much current to keep your cars battery charged while operating all headlights, heater/ac blowers, defoggers etc. personally, I would not run more than 20 amps thru these.

Yes, but keep in mind your vehicle wiring is still limited to 20 amps. So if you are using the original vehicle outlet and the new piggy-backed circuit, the combined amperage draw cannot exceed 20 amps.

No, it looks like you need 09850 see here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bosch-09850-Spark-Plug-Wire-Set-/281087874091?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1999%7CMake%3AMercedes-Benz%7CModel%3ACL500%7CSubmodel%3ABase&hash=item417224942b&vxp=mtr

I have many Bosch 12 Volt tools and all are interchangeable - only difference amp rating (higher amp gives you a little longer run time) - you can't beat Bosch

400w RMS has about 28 amp load. 12 gauge will work within about 4 feet from battery which is about the distance to front seat from the car battery. 10 gauge if your in a full size truck or trying to run to the trunk.

Your inputting 12 volts d.c. from the car batteries electrical system, which the inverter conerts to 110v volts a.c. This is an excellent unit. I can use a hammer drill, circular saw, shop vac from from my service vehicle. Make sure to order an inline 200 amp fuse and fuse holder, along with 6 gauge wires. I also highly recommend getting the remote control to make it easier to turn on/off.

This is for a 36 volt cart. Be sure to add a wire to power the gauge. The wire will be attached to the on/off switch.

I used a #10 stranded copper wire THHN is good for 30 amps. I ran a red and black from the charge controller out to the battery terminals. The charger will keep a constant and monitoring voltage for your 12 volt battery. You may want to add a Wattsup to give more information and condition of the process.
