Review on Waterproof 12V to 24V Boost Converter for Golf Cart Club Car | 72W DC Voltage Regulator & Power Transformer by Jeff Bridgewater

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A simple way to power 12V accessories on the eBike.

I needed to add a 12v accessory to a 48v powered e-bike. I calculated that the total current from my 12v accessory would be less than 3 amps. This 10A module is more than enough to get the job done and gives me the freedom to add additional 12V devices if I feel like it. Some reviewers noted the presence of a spark when connecting the input power wires, even with no load. This is normal, so don't worry. This is caused by the "buck" inductance used in its voltage step-down circuit. For electrical protection, I strongly recommend installing a fuse on the input and output. Something like this on the positive input/output pins (with fuses of the right size) will provide adequate protection: ZAOJIAO 16 AWG Gauge Auto ATC built-in fuse holders 3 pcs. + Standard automotive fuse 3A 5A 7.5A 10A
