What is a voltage converter?
Created 3/15/2023 11:07:44 AMWhat is a voltage converter?
A voltage converter is exactly as it sounds. It takes
the total voltage of your golf carts batteries and reduces it down to 12 volts
for installation of popular accessories.
Most accessories that require electricity to operate use an input voltage of 12V DC. Unless you have a direct 12V battery connection (gas cart or electric cart with 12V batteries), then you need a way to reduce the carts' overall voltage to 12V (in order to prevent damage to these electrical components). To accomplish this, you can use a voltage converter or a voltage reducer.
A DC converter or Voltage converter, is a device that accepts a DC input voltage and produces a DC output voltage of a different value through the use of semiconductors. Converters used to power the electronics on golf cars are specifically designed to reduce the voltage to 12V. Voltage Converters are highly recommended for accessory power management as it provides an even draw across all of your batteries. Batteries have a certain discharge range that must be maintained. If you draw power from only two batteries they discharge faster than the rest and become over discharged. When batteries reach a state of over discharge, it is only a short period of time before they are completely destroyed and in need of replacement. Converters are designed to convert a specific range of input voltage depending on the level of output voltage needed. This means they are not golf cart specific, but specific only to the output amperage flow needed. This is determined by the number of accessories and the associated input amp requirement.
