No, you will need to get a step up transformer, it's probably more sensible to get a 12v sensor.
Yes, a 12 volt auto light bulb can work on 12 volt AC, but the light output might be slightly lower compared to when using DC. The bulb will still produce light, but it may flicker due to the alternating current.
just so you know, all trucks used to have a full 24 volt system and cars had a 6 volt system so the design is not a nightmare. still a lot of tractors about with a 6 volt system. now a good electrician can connect a 12 volt unit to a 24 volt system if he knows what he is doing it is just a matter of knowing where to do it on a battery. you can also buy a voltage converter and wire it in. and yes you can still buy 24 light bulbs Before you go deep inside this, check the voltage on the cigarette lighter. It should only be 12 volts. The 24 volts are used in starting the truck only. By thinking this through, designing a vehicle that worked on a 24-volt electrical system would be a disaster. No one would buy it. All the current electrical components for vehicles are for 12-volt systems. Lights, gauges, radios - everything! How much trouble would it be to replace something like, say, a map light if a 24-volt lamp had to be located? Alternativley Check the powercable as many of them can work on different voltage say from 10 to 30 volts and power the gps with the correct voltage.
Choose a bulb with the same voltage as your fixture to prevent damage or risk of overheating. If the fixture specifies 120 volts, use a 120-volt bulb. If in doubt, consult the manufacturer's instructions or a professional electrician.
To replace a 120 volt pool light with a 12 volt pool light, you will need to ensure that the new light is compatible with your pool's existing wiring and transformer. Consult the manufacturer's instructions for the specific installation steps. It is recommended to hire a professional electrician to safely make this switch.
Remove the light sensor and place a switch between the red and black wires. The black wire is one leg of the "hot" pair and the load is connected to the red wire. This will now switch the black hot through the red wire that goes to the load.
Hook a 12 volt light to a 24 volt system and the light will burn out in seconds. You need a step-down voltage converter to do this.
could be a sensor or relay
Yes, in fact that is what a rough service bulb is rated at. The bulb used on a 120 volt system will have a reduced wattage output as to what it would be on 130 volts.
Yes a 220 volt light bulb will run on a 120 volt circuit but at 1/4 of the wattage that the light bulb is rated at. A 100 watt light bulb on 220 would would be equal to a 25 watt light bult on 120 volt system.
Yes, if you have a 12 volt battery and/or a charging system to support it.
Yes, a 12 volt auto light bulb can work on 12 volt AC, but the light output might be slightly lower compared to when using DC. The bulb will still produce light, but it may flicker due to the alternating current.
They are run on the vehicles 12 volt dc electrical system.
5 volt supply, sensor ground and signal voltage.5 volt supply, sensor ground and signal voltage.
If your 1949 truck is a CHEVY or GMC and it still has the original electrical system, it would be 6 volt, negative ground. If it is a Dodge or a Ford with the oringinal electrical system it would be 6 volt, positive ground.
No
If the light stays on it indicates your charging system has malfunctioned. Usually this means the alternator has failed, but not always.
