How much AC power would this draw at the 15 Amp setting?

Sorry I don't know.I have used it a couple times but do not know how much power it used.

It draws no more than about 4A of AC. Part of the reason that it is lower than a conventional charger is due to the switch-mode charger technology, and also very much lighter in weight! In fact their 40A charger only pulls about 9.5A of AC, which any modern outlet should be able to handle. I've measured it with a P3 International Kill-A-Watt meter and it is pretty close. One can also cheat by looking at the specifications in the manual at the end. -grin-

It's under 15 amps because I ran it on a bunch of 15a circuits in my home during the remodel with no problems.

Its rated for 22 amps. I wouldn't load with more than 15 amps, because your motor will pull more amps at start up.

It says 1600 watts. That's 14 amps at 110 volts or 7 amps at 220 volts. But it did not work with a 1500 watt hair dryer at all and it "killed" my wife's curling iron. Read the reviews. I would not recommend this unit for converting 220 V to 110 V. As an adapter to use dual-voltage devices with different outlet types it is OK.

Can't answer that one for sure. You may want to check with the manufacturer. It would work when using the cooling unit at 15 amp and under.

It's 15 amps, so this will allow a device to pull pretty much the maximum current from a typical wall outlet. Anything requiring more current than this can handle shouldn't be plugged in to a typical wall outlet anyway.

The unit is rated at 12 AMPS, 1440 WATTS. A 15 AMP circuit is sufficient as long as there are not other appliances on the circuit.Hope that helps!

in reality it draws about 30 watts dc or about 2 1/2 amps dc i turn it off when not using it.....

No, standard 15amp 120v couldn't even meet its peak power demand not to mention the size ac/dc converter you would need. Buy a 120v amp you will spend more trying to convert this one.

If you're running 110volt, then the 15 amp is what you need. If you're running 220 volt, you'll need a 30 amp.

While it doesn't have a rated amps on it I believe it would handle 12 volts X 15 Amps= 180 watts. Be sure to run a heavy wire to it with a fused circuit.

I put this on a 15 amp line without any problem, this thing does not draw a lot

My instructional sheet says: This unit is designed to operate on 110/120V and will require 15 amps. Hope this helps.

I believe a 15 amp outlet is recommended. I think it is actually around 12 though.

15 Amps. Wattage is Volts x Amps, so the wattage is dependant on the voltage.

Nothing on the plugs that would indicate amperage, so I can't tell you for sure. Having said that, the wire looks to be 14-2 which would mean 15 amps.

To enhance the previous two answers: Everything you plug in will be running on 120 V, drop the "high voltage" term. A 15 amp capacity translates to 1800 Watts so limit your plug-ins to that. Some things surge on startup (motors and incandescent bulbs) so you may want to derate below the 1800 W. If you have sensitive or expensive things to plug in you might consider mapping your circuits, breaker box to each outlet, avoid placing your toys on noisy circuits with things like hair dryers, motors, dimmers, etc. and spread to different circuits.
