This is a little bit off the beaten path...please delete it if it is too far off. I am converting my van into a camper and would like to relocate the a/c unit to the rear of my van - I plan on putting a steel box in the rear, against the side wall and putting the compressor and coil in it - using the parts from the van. I was thinking of getting a 24v electric motor to power the compressor - 24v so that it would be able to run off the solar panel on top of the van. Would 2 hp be big enough? What kind of motor would work?
