Worked Great for Snow Blower Lights
I wanted to put a LED light on the front of my Ariens snow blower so I could see better when using it at night. The snow blower had a 20 watt "headlight" that was not very good. I checked the voltage from the alternator and found the voltage to be 12 VAC. I needed 12 VDC for the LED lights. I used this converter to convert the power to 12 VDC. I installed a 5" round 25 watt headlight on the snow blower and it works great.
Enables a bicycle generator to power leds
I power my bicycle lights with a dynamo generator that is driven by the rotation of the tire; it generates 12 volts AC. Most leds require DC power. This converter allowed me to use the bike generator to power the leds. (There are lots of leds on this site that make better and less expensive bike lighting than lights made specifically for that purpose; for example, many of the marker and clearance lamps for commercial vehicles.)
Snowblowe modification
I found the plastic chutes on the snowblowers had to much free play in the movement; so I designed a system to
prevent unwanted movement. The installation of a micro-motor with a gear box 5000 - 1 with 134 in/lbs torque has now locked the chute to where it is set. Since snowblowers produce 12 vac and I needed 12 vdc 1 amp this unit had plenty of power and some to spare. So installed a 1000 lumens flat panel led light.
Total current draw 1.18 amps unit
The unit is rated for 3 amps so it should last years.
