Many appliances, such as Flat Screen TV’s, are mains operated, but
in fact the mains supply is reduced and regulated down to 12 volt in a plug-
At first sight it would seem that the Mains Plug-
However, that boat or vehicle battery supply will vary from perhaps 11 volts to 14.8 volts, depending on many factors.
Voltage drops are caused by turning lights on, water pumps or fridge turning on, toilet etc, and of course the state of battery charge. Voltage increases when some of the above loads are turned off, and of course when some sort of charging system is operating:
Initially all may seem to be well, but longer term damage can be occurring, such
as TV screen pixel damage, overstressed power supplies, components etc. A limited
range of more specialised appliances claiming to be designed and intended for the
RV/Marine market are sometimes available, but at greatly increased prices.
These economical
converters will regulate and stabilise your boat or camper supply to a rock solid
12 volts.
If your battery voltage is down, it will step it up to the required 12 volts
If
your battery voltage is up it will step it down to the required 12 volts ALL INSTANTLY
AND AUTOMATICALLY.
Both models shown below have a fixed output voltage of 12 volts, so once you are sure that is the voltage required by your appliance,
choose the converter model with a current rating to match or exceed the rating of your appliance, ie 5 amp (60w) or 10 amp (120w)
