If you dont understand the how to wire things into a dc system such as "do i need another battery", don't attempt to install this, there is very little reason you could need 1800 watts AC in a car anyway

There is a world of difference between putting batteries in series or parallel (not going to explain this here) and if you chose the wrong option, not only can you get hurt, but say goodbye to all the electronics in your vehicle to include the ECM, Stereo, etc.

How many amps in 180 watts?

It depends on exactly what you are talking about.Something that is described as "X" watts is really just a resistor of a fixed size that, when connected to the proper voltage supply, will produce "X" watts of energy (light, heat, sound, etc.)So, if you have something that is declared as 1800W and is supposed to be connected to 120V, then you have a resistor that is of size:120V*120V/1800W = 8 OhmWhen plugged into the proper 120V source, you will pull120V/8Ohm = 15 AmpsIf you have something that is declared as 1800W but is supposed to be connected to a 240V supply, then you have a resistor that is of size:240V*240V/1800W = 32 OhmWhen plugged into the proper 240V source, you will pull240V/32Ohm = 7.5 AmpsSo, even though both of these things were called "1800W", the key factor is what voltage they are supposed to be driven by in order to get that 1800W. These items are not interchangeable.The 32 Ohm device will not produce 1800W on a 120V source. It will produce only 450W and pull only 3.75 Amps.The 8 Ohm device will not produce 1800W on a 240V source. It will produce 7200W and will pull 30 Amps.


What type of circuit and or breaker should a typical consumer-sold hot plate rated at around 1800w with 2 burners for 120v ac be plugged into - will typical kitchen countertop plugs do?

1800 watts will require a 20 amp circuit. Kitchen countertop outlets are usually, but not always, 20 amp circuits.


What power amp is needed for 1800 watt sub?

You didn't mention if that 1800W is Peak or RMS - I'll assume it's RMS.(In case you don't know the difference: RMS is basically the power level it can handle all the time. Peak is the power level it can handle for a short period of time before damage potentially occurs. Usually, Peak is double the RMS rating.)Many installers are comfortable recommending a 1 to 1 ratio. So, your 1800W sub would need an 1800W amp.I don't feel that gives enough of a safety margin. I prefer a 1 to 1.3 ratio. In which case your 1800W sub would need a 2400W amp.


Maximum load 1800W resistive - 600W tungsten?

The maximum load for resistive devices is 1800W, while for tungsten devices it is 600W. This means that devices with resistive load can safely draw up to 1800W of power, while devices with a tungsten load should not exceed 600W to prevent damage to the equipment and ensure safety.

What stepdown transformer is required to run a Breville American 1800w 120v toaster oven off 230v UK mains Specific details of what to ask for say at Maplins or similar places would be useful?

To run a Breville American 1800W 120V toaster oven off a 230V UK mains, you will need a step-down transformer that converts 230V to 120V with at least an 1800W capacity. When asking at a store like Maplins, specify that you need a "step-down transformer" rated for at least 2000W to ensure it can handle the toaster oven's power draw safely. Additionally, request a model with a standard UK plug on the input side and a NEMA 5-15P outlet (or similar) on the output side to match the toaster's plug.


Is it safe to run 1800W with a 10-3 extension cord approx 200 ft?

Assuming it's a 240 v circuit, 1800 watts is 6.7 amps and a 10-3 wire is ok.


How do you convert 110 volt 15 amp to 110 volt 20 amp?

I don't understand the question, but if you want to make the line into a 20amp instead of 15amp, you just install a 20amp breaker, but remember,the wire must be 12ga wire to be connected to a 20amp breaker.

How long NOMA Backup Power System 1800W run a portable heater?

The NOMA Backup Power System with 1800W capacity can run a portable heater for a limited time, depending on the heater's wattage. For instance, if the heater consumes 1500W, the system could run it for approximately 1 to 1.2 hours, considering some energy loss. If the heater is lower wattage, such as 750W, it could run for about 2 to 2.4 hours. Always check the specific heater wattage for accurate estimates.

How many plug-in outlets can you wire to a 15A breaker?

Most (if not all) city codes require outlets be wired with 12 gauge wire and a 20 amp breaker. Lights can be wired with 14 gauge and 15 amps. One, or possibly a million. The question you need to ask youself is how do you intend to load this 15A circuit. It already has a light on it. Is that all? How much power does this use? What is the usage of these new outlets? How much power do you plan to draw off them? Remeber power is the product of voltage and current. So your 15A 120V breaker can supply 1800W. Sum up everything you want to put on this circuit. If you plan on drawing more than 1000W regularly on this circuit you should consider using two or more circuits. Keep in mind you want a margin of error (I went with 800W) for large temporary loads such as vacuum cleaners and irons. Don't underrate your circuit, you will regret it later. Another poster said in another thread that according to code "generally each duplex outlet may count for 180W" (Smseagle). So, to use this rule, you need to take 1800W, subtract the wattage of your security light, and divide the result by the remainder. The quotient, rounded down, is your answer.
