I'm kind of worried about the idea of taking drive off one axle. The
diff. is designed to transmit load to both axles at once, and I'm not
sure it would take kindly to having one axle fixed and the other
spinning for long periods. Never mind the thoughts on the rollers.
However...

Wouldn't it be easier to buy a 12Vdc appliance and plug it into the cigar

That gave me an idea....

Caravans use 12v DC water pumps, some of them designed to work inline
with the pipe, others intended to fit at the dipped into the water end
of the pipe. Flow rates are enough for a shower, but lifting height will
be limited - say around two meters.

These days most car alternators produce a lot of amps - so an inverter
would be a cheaper solution. And more efficient. Most modern cars will
alter the idle speed to cope with the extra load.


Guys, this is a 2CV. Modern car? And aren't they 6 volts??
