It would take a large 1/2 to 3/4 horsepower 12v DC motor that costs around $300 and weigh around 30lb.
I believe the Saginaw P1 is just too large to be coupled with a fractional HP DC motor up under the hot engine compartment. The motor would constantly be running in overload in a hot environment so it would just fry.
The entire hydraulic power unit weighs about 30lb and I can put it where ever I want.
