Thank you all for your input, but none of this is answering the question I asked which was:

so here's the question I'm looking to have answered: will an extra ~300watts of power use cause less load on the engine via alt. than a belt-driven ac?

I said that I wanted a "scaled-down version" of my current air conditioner, so I don't want to use 879 watts. I care about using 300 watts. If i used 300 watts of additional power, would that result in more or less fuel usage than running my belt-driven ac?
And I figure I can just use the existing AC radiator and pipe the heat from the hot side to that in order to keep them cool.
