<DIV>I had written several articles about this need and received an email from a guy who was making DC powered heatpumps for big rig truckers so they do not need to leave engine idling all night. He claims the standard unit runs on 12 volt DC batteries that can be solar charged, but also claims he now has a model about 3/4 ton that runs on 48 VDC for off-grid solar homes. His specifications look good, but when I questioned some of his claims he replys with these 4 page email missives. Not sure if he just truly believes in his product or dosn't have both oars in the water, but I always get a little concerned when this happens. </DIV>
