Many months ago someone had a post whereby they were able to run a 24 volt Webasto from a 12 volt house system. Anyone recall how that was done? Thanks.

How about a 12 to 24volt Buck Boost DC to DC convertor, efficiency around 85% and can supply 10A.
Try powerstream dot com look at their PST-DU700-24

Ahoy, Bob,

I posted this as part of the sale of a Proheat diesel boiler (NOT a lousy Webasto) about a month ago:

"This Proheat XL 1500 is a 24vdc unit. The Proheat which I have installed in my (12vdc) Eagle Bus conversion is also a 24vdc unit. Easy solution. I use a 12vdc 12.5 amp power supply with a floating input and output. Plug it into the inverter. Hook the 12vdc battery to the (-dc) input to the power supply, and the (+) side of the power supply is at 24vdc to ground. It works just fine, behaves just like a 12vdc battery in series . For a power supply, see www.mpja.com".

The www.mpja.com site shows some 12v power supplys which are OK. Cost maybe $40.00. Work just fine.

Enjoy/s/Bob
