Even if that's the case, the question then becomes, though greater electrical load is required to run such a setup, will it produce more or less engine drag compared to mechanical setup? Such a setup that relies on RPM. As for efficiency, I'd like to think an ewp could streamline the cooling.. Especially with a controller of sorts. Set a constant solid value /voltage, and have it run at a set continuous speed instead of being RPM dependant. That's efficient enough for me.
Even if so, I think in my situation, it's still something I want to pursue. The reliability factor boils down to intent purpose and product of choice, as well as integration. After years people are still running their ewp setups with no problems. Sure, some have prematurely failed.. For reliability- I had a new mechanical pump seize on me once causing my engine to near overheat. Current pump has not failed me yet, but I want to experiment
If the thing quits working, then it just does then from there I reconsider based on longevity.
