Yet to Install, Have First Impression
Went over the installation manual. Also inspected in detail the compressor that arrived. Basically it is two compressors laid side by side “boxer” style. This compressor is large and heavy, exactly what I want for a Unimog but maybe too heavy and large for a “normal” vehicle. Nice quality harness and master switch arrived with the compressor. However the most disturbing part of the design is that the harness taps into the 12v half of a 24v battery bank. This is generally a no no for balanced battery bank. If you have a (rare) 24v battery this harness will not work for you. Since it’s a very thin black wire it likely doesn’t consume and carry much current, but the power demand spec is unclear.
