Looking for specs on the jebao DC12000...

Im looking for electrical specs on the Jebao DC12000.

i checked fish-street. but the specs get cut off, so you cant really see them. am i correct with what i think i see with 84w and 24v??? that seems crazy. cause that would mean that pump would pull about 3.5 amps. thats a tonnnnnn of amps for a small pump..

so any body that has purchased this pump, if you could give me some specs, i would greatly appreciate it very very much.

im looking to learn how many amps this pump will pull. so any info on watts and voltage would be great...

thank you...

I dont know an exact AMP rating but I can assure you its no where near 3 amps.

its 84watts
Your just electrically confused..

(ignoring efficiency of power conversion)
3.5 amps at 24 v = 84 watts
84 watts on 120v = .7 Amps
So its a .7A draw from your house power..
or .38A if you are on 220V

Amps is not the same when different voltage conversions are occurring. But watts is..

and so far (about a year into it) my DC12000 is still kicking strong. it pumps a good deal of water.. But DO NOT enclose the power supply in a box or anything.. It runs HOT.. All jebao power supplies are pretty much junk.. some work.. some die quickly.

i googled watts to amp conversion. and it said at 84w 24v that it would pull 3.5amps.. just goin on what the conversion table told me...

but either way. thank you for clearing that up for me. i thought that was wayyy to much to be pulling...

the thing that got me was i thought it said 24v not 120v...
