<VV> Electric A/C compressor?

 Thanks!! Wasn't sure. Hybrids and BEVs all seem to use the 400 VAC units.

>From SEMA last year "The 12 V AC compressor installs easily, works quietly and attaches to Vintage Air units.  We’re featuring two units that  produce 3,753 BTU/hr.@ 31.17 amps, and 6,613 BTU/hr. @ 49.59 amps. respectively.   In order to simplify your decision making we’ve put together this article that contains the necessary information you need in order to specify the complete A/C system you need."

These are 400 VAC. Not sure if there are any 12VDC compressors, as the power demand is rather a lot.
