So my heat like barely works... not sure why last winter it worked great? its blows out..just not heat lol... so I have an idea with a 2000C-4000M watt inverter I have laying around.. hear me out
The heater is a 1500Watt, and the inverter is 2000 Continuous and 4000 Max, So im pretty sure it will work in that aspect. But I am wondering if I can run it off my "stock" electrical system? I have 2 batteries (rear Kinetik) but running on the stock alt because my 220Amp alt over heated. Can I run the heater? or should i wait to get my high output alt fixed and back (in a few days) Or does anyone know why my heat just doesnt work anymore? thanks!

i personally would not run a heater inside a car simply because our toyota charging systems are very weak. Even if your inverter can power the heater, doesn't mean your alternator can make that much power.
If your not getting heat through your radiator, its most likely your heater core is clogged or broken. |
