I'd like to say hello to everyone. This will be my first posting.
I'm an Emergency Management Coordinator for Oceanport, NJ. We have two M35A2, 1967 and 1969, both Kaiser's, which we use for rescue work during flood conditions or other emergencies.
WE are presently mounting emergency lighting to both trucks. I'm using surplus equipment which we already own and that equipment is primarily 12 volt in nature. I have some strobe powered stuff which will take 12 and 24 volt.
What I'm looking for is ways to power the 12 volt equipment. I had purchased converters, but the AMPS are limited to about 25. I found one that will do 40 APMS.
Does anyone know if the trucks have 12 V power sources I could hook into or any other way I could power the 12 volt equipment. Converters cost $180 to $260 and I'd like to use that money for more work on the trucks.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Once I have the trucks done, I'll post pictures.
