Not clear Steve - - - again. You could use an AC powered battery charger to maintain "float." If
you were to design a power supply for direct operation from residential power, you'd need to pay
careful attention to the horsepower required by the hoist. Your OP didn't burden us with that
information.

Steve sez:
"Since it is 12v. what would I use as a power supply that would give me
the same as
an automotive setup?"

The simple answer is: A battery of the same rating as used in an
automotive setup.

I didn't state that I wanted to use an AC power source, and not have the
falderal of maintaining a battery. That is why I asked that question.
Please reread and try again.
