Anyway 1500 W would heat the air way too much, and I cannot pull that from the battery.
Hair dryers are more powerful than that, and even at that power I am still having difficulty with the concept having enough juice to work.

There's your test right there. Cold start, 1500w hair dryer in the intake, what happens? Or stick two 75w light bulbs in there. That is the power you are talking about.
