13.8V DC 25A Switching Power Supply
Your RadioShack 13.8V DC 25A Switching
Power Supply is designed to use AC power
to power equipment that requires 12V DC
automotive power. The power supply con-
verts standard 120V AC household power to
13.8V DC power and can supply up to 25
amps of continuous power. Your vehicle’s
12V electrical system provides 13.8V when
the engine is running.
If you are an electronic hobbyist or techni-
cian, you will appreciate the many uses for
the power supply at your workbench or in
your house. For example, you can use your
CB mobile transceiver as a base station,
check the operation of autosound systems
before you install them in your vehicle, or
even power marine equipment such as
pumps.
Your power supply’s features include:
Regulated Output Voltage
— makes it safe
to use with mobile CBs, scanners, ham radi-
os, laptop computers, tape players, cellular
phones, or anything you would power with a
vehicle’s DC electrical system.
Electronic Overload Protection
— auto-
matically shuts off when its output is over-
loaded.
Overheat Protection Circuit
— automati-
cally shuts off if it overheats.
Versatile Output Connectors
— act as both
binding posts and banana plug terminals.
Not recommended for outdoor use.
