A lamp doesn't care whether it operates from a 12-V d.c. supply or from a 120V a.c. supply -all that matters is the supply must be 12 V!

If it's connected to a 12-V d.c. supply, then it will draw a current of 8.33 A; if it's connected to a 12-V a.c. supply, it will still draw a current of 8.33 A.

The formula you are looking for is I = W/E , Amps = Watts/ Volts.

1000 / 12 = 83.33 A

Divide the watts by the volts, so it's 130 divided by 12, and the answer is in amps.
