24V to 5V 10A 50W DC DC Converter Regulator Car Step Down Reducer 24V to 5V 10AMP Daygreen CE Certificated (WHL #46)

Alright, part two of the DC-DC converter tests that’ll lead to a small project. This time we got a 5V/10A converter from Daygreen, model number B10-1224-05, shipped together with the 12V/10A unit from WHL #44. This item was 2.41€ excluding shipping, as described in that blog post.

It’s a brick style unit as well, a tad smaller, but also has two mounting holes left and right which are flush with the case. Contrary to the more powerful 12V one, this is only a plastic case that was potted, but it has four screw terminals and therefore offers more flexibility when it comes to attaching your own wiring.

DC5V USB PORT 10X10CM El panel Electroluminescent BackLight panel el foil el paper el sheet Led Board Display with Inverter (WHL #35)

I’m not sure if that fits his needs, but I’m confident he’ll tell me if it’s not ;) I bought this thing quite recently on AliExpress (mid-January 2018) for 5.22€ including shipping. Yes, shipping cost have increased by a bit, but shipping times have improved as well. […]


Micro USB V8 Cable 2016 High Quality New Arrival Nice Black White Colors USB Car Charger (WHL #15)

Hello again!

Today, I have something springy for you. A powerful car charger for two of your favourite electronics!

…except I broke it during first use :lol: Prepare for some Wan Hung Lo qualitty goodness!

I bought this fine piece of equipment for 2.48€ at AliExpress back in November. And I got my money back.

Notice something? Well…the center pin looks a bit…retracted. But first things first. As I have a matching car receptacle to test such things with lab equipment instead of doing measurements in the car, I first tried the charger at my lab power supply. […]
