Its not that 6v cant do the job, its the availability of components that limits you. heat, AC, music, seat heaters, lighting, GPS, just about any addition you want to do is available in 12v. As you add components you raise your ampacity requirements, the model a generator is good to 30a,most off the shelf 12v alternators are under 100 bucks and provide 60a at the minimum..

Thanks for posting that picture. I think you posted it in the past on another thread, and I was thinking about hunting for it.

By any chance, would you have an Amazon link to it?
