You'll do better by buying a deep cycle battery and have it connected to your truck's charging system through an isolator (so your truck won't drain the winch battery and your winch won't drain the truck battery).How many ac amps are in a 12 volt battery?you cannot do that for a few different reasons the outlet in your house is ac voltage and more volts than you want to put through that device. a typical outlet is 11o volts and depending on the circuit breaker, about 20 amps. a typical car battery is only 12 volts and up to 1000 cca (to the starter at least) use a car battery for the power source. i am curious why you are even thinking of using a winch around the house.How many ac amps are in a 12 volt battery?There are no AC amps in a 12 volt battery.
Your winch is designed for 12 volts DC - any AC source, regardless of voltage, is not going to work.
You need to find out what the amperage draw on the winch is with 12volt DC. You will then need to acquire a 120Volt AC converter to 12 Volts DC with the sufficient amperage output.How many ac amps are in a 12 volt battery?Your winch should have come with a current draw chart. Look at the max current draw. Try and find a powersupply to convert the AC to DC. Make shure the output current rating meets or exceeds the winch draw. If you can find one, it will be very expensive $500.00 or more.How many ac amps are in a 12 volt battery?If it's a DC winch, then you need DC to run it. You should use a battery charger to run it, it could be anywhere from 1-20 or more DCamps. Chargers are pretty cheap.
