Dc-Dc converter

[Architectonic]

So I'm after a cost effective dc converter with 12v out, maybe 20-30 watts tops. I was wondering what the latest recommendations were?

Coming from what voltage?

 

[Architectonic]

Typical ebike voltage. 36-80v

Or a jaycar 12V2A SMPS plugpack. http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=MP3486

Just ordered a second one I don't need just in case. :wink:

Old LCD monitor power supply brick from Goodwill or other thrift store. Many will run off the bike's DC battery just fine.

These work well.. ive recently found out you can run led emitters with them also.

+1 on this. I use this to power my heated vest from my pack. Variable output up to 30v. Highly recommended.
