Don't risk damaging your 12-volt electronics. The Alfatronix PowerVerter series is the industry standard for safely and reliably powering 12V equipment from a 24V vehicle electrical system. Designed for mission-critical applications in transport, heavy machinery, commercial vehicles, and marine, these converters provide clean, stable power you can depend on.
Whether you need to run a 12V mobile radio, CB, GPS, satellite phone, or entertainment system, there is a PowerVerter model for the job. Their advanced switch-mode design is 96% efficient, running cool and wasting almost no power. Best of all, they feature an ultra-low quiescent current, so they can be left connected 24/7 without ever draining your battery.
-
🚛
Mission-Critical Reliability: Designed for 24/7 use in trucks, buses, construction, and marine environments. Fully protected against over-voltage, over-temperature, and short-circuits.
-
🔋
Ultra-Low Standby Current: Confirmed: Draws less than 15mA when not in use. This is so low, it will not drain your vehicle's battery, even if left on for weeks.
-
📈
96% Power Efficiency: Runs cool and efficiently, converting 24V to 12V with minimal power loss. Lightweight and compact compared to older, non-regulated converters.
-
🛡️
"E-Mark" Certified & IP53 Rated: Fully certified for vehicle use (E-Mark) and protected against dust and water spray (IP53), ensuring a long service life.
💡 How to Choose the Right Converter
For two-way radios, you must choose a converter that can handle the high power draw *when transmitting*. We recommend a rating of 1.5x to 2x your radio's maximum draw.
- For a CB Radio (draws 2-3A): The PV3s (3A) or PV6s (6A) is a perfect choice.
- For a 50W Mobile Radio (draws 10-12A): The PV12s (12A) is a good fit, but the PV18s (18A) provides excellent headroom and is the recommended, safest choice.
- For multiple devices: Add up the total continuous draw of all your devices and select the model that provides at least 50% headroom.
