How many amps does it draw/need when running off a 12v source?

It's not an industrial-grade unit. It's small and for home or 12 volt car use. Always leave engine on to not run down battery. No Amp. listing on unit or instructions.

Do not have the answer, waiting to use it at our cottage this summer. Hope it works for bicycle tires, an moped tires, blow up pool stuff and air mattresses.

It's not listed on the unit. I suggest running the car when using it off accessory plug to save the battery. It runs and fills faster. I bought it because it plugs into the AC as well. I have smaller units for emergency car use. Similar to a Craftsman unit that recently "fell apart" and only lasted 5 years with occasional use. I hope this unit is better made. Really good for blowing up mattresses and large pool "floaties".

Input 100-240 v, 50/60 hz, 1.0A; Output 12.0V--- 3000mA . Hope this is what you need.

12 vdc is required, if you lose power the configurations stays, i recommend you to use 3rd party relay on the output and do not use the direct relay output

I do not know for sure, I think 12amps. it is not strong, would not recommend it

I have run this off of a large diesel generator (tow behind rental). Worked just fine. Might draw too many amps for a small generator.

Uses 12v isolated switched source.The circuit to which you will pull power from should be able tosupport a 3 amp draw. Make sure this connection is protected with a 5Afuse.

any 12 volt dc power source i would use at least 1 ampWall Adapter Power Supply - 12VDC 1A

sorry don't really know im using on a 12 volt system you should be able too they only take less than 2 mps to run

Off grid 12v solar w/440ah reserve this unit would typically draw 5 amps when it cycles. DC power can be finicky, The better and shorter wiring or connection to your battery - battery bank, the better this unit will run. Try to use an independent or more direct source/circuit. Avoid plugging into a source already feeding other accessories. Also, make sure the vents are clear.Edit to add; 60-65 watts according to a dc amps to watts calc.

Not too sure what amps it draws but I think it would be more than 2 amps when under load Cheers Al.

It draws around 10 amps at 120 volts. I plug mine into a general branch circuit and so far it works well.

its a 12 VOLT DC vaccuum the fuse in the plug is rated at 10 amps so it will draw less than 120 W

This motor uses not more than 3 amps normal operation at full speed. At start up it can draw up to 10 amps. I rec to use at leat 12 amps power supply for an on-off operation.

It puts out 12vdc at up to 2 amps. If you only need 500ma, this has more capacity.

I checked the one I installed on my generator, it shuts off at 1.96 amps @13.2 Vdc. A fully charged 12 Vdc mattery will read 12.7 volts and 12.4 at 50%. If it's on a system that has an alternator then it will run around 13.4 to 14.2, which will lower the amps slightly.

I bought mine for running a Humminbird depth finder in the house. It will power anything needing 12 DC as long as it is less than 3 amps.

It should run off any 12 volt power source. This small battery would work, don't know for how long, likely many hours at a minimum.
