My Fantastic Fan simply does not require -that- much amperage to worry about robbing from a convenient pair of wires. The trick is making sure the wires to be robbed from are hot all the time.
Who in their right mind would wire a dual voltage system with incorrect NEC wire colors?
The "Hot Setup" is to dedicate primary colors:
120VAC
Black L1
Blue L2
White L0 (neutral)
12VDC
Red Hot all the time. Not swithed at source
Yellow Battery negative
Remaining Colors: Switched or dedicated fuse circuits
You cannot appreciate how much EASIER this makes things years later. Find a color wire then go to the fuse panel and read the function label.
That's funny cause in my trailer the red 12v was switch based and the purple 12v was the constant.
