There is no way I think that that the A/C draws as much current as the charger, even with 110v can supply. My inefficient refrigerator compressor only draws 200 watts. Here is a quick test for those with no OBD II scanner. With the car on and plenty of battery EV miles, turn everything off except the A/C on max. Watch how long it takes for the EV miles to click away. In my car I get about 14 miles per 2.7 kwh charge. Turning on the A/C lowers it to about 12.5 immediately. Therefore, each 0.1 miles represents 21.6 watt hours. Maybe it takes 3 or 5 minutes to use up 0.1 miles...ignore the first one (a partial) and time until the second one clicks off. Let's say it takes 3 minutes. In an hour it would be 20 of those...or 20/h * 21.6 watt-hours...or 432 watts. If the A/C took the entirety of the ~1350 watts the 110v charger supplies, then it would click off 0.1 miles 62 times an hour or in less than a minute. I think it takes longer than that. Anyway, there should somewhere be a spec on how many watts the A/C compressor consumes. IIRC I read that the Prius A/C had a cooling power of 3.4 kw. At a modest SEER of 10 that would mean 340 watts for the compressor. (Also need to add in the power for the fan). Mike
If I remember correctly... I used to use the torque app on my old Gen3 (yet to get it going on the pip) and it would tell me anywhere from 0 to 1200 watts for the ac. It would very rarely be as high as 1200 though.
