We produced these units to have an output
voltage of 14v DC so that they could be used
over some distance.
DC current does not carry over distance quite
as well as AC current, significant voltage
drop happens through resistance in the wires.
But AC transformers also consume power and
it is down to the engineers to say which loses
more power, running high voltage DC over a
distance or using AC transformers with rectifiers.
Our engineers always recommend using
DC if possible so we offer these devices with
the following important information:
Input - 100 to 240vAC (will operate
on either - no switching)
Output voltage - 13.3~14.4vDC
DC output side - AWG number 18 cable
1.8 m length with 10 mm end cut and tinned wires.
A/C cord - 1m SAA A/C cord
Housing colour -- Black
