    Are these amps at 120 volts? They draw that high an electrical load?

    The volts are DC and usually in the 24 - 26 range.

    The 120 volts are applied to a transformer that then supplies the DC volts and amps to the control unit that supplies the DC volts and amps to the cell.

    The average load applied to the transformer on the DIG-220 controller, is about 200 watts.

    Hope this helps.
