Hi!

I owned a F80 before. I'm considering to buy a F80 again, and modify it to a 12 volt power inlet for use on my boat...

Do you think it's possible to feed a F80 with 12 volt?

Cheers Ben

Have you thought of using an inverter?

Here's a link to the type of thing I mean.

This would save making any changes to the unit.

Steve.

I think an inverter is very inefficient and takes a lot of power.

Hi,

The inverters in the TLC link that Steve posted are circa 90% efficient, just click the link and then the model to see the specification.

Regards,
Carl
