Elcon 500W IP67 Sealed DC-DC Converter – 12V Power for EV Systems
Compact. Rugged. Dependable 12V Output for Any EV Build.
The Elcon 500W IP67 Sealed DC-DC Converter is a highly efficient, weather-sealed power converter engineered to deliver stable 12V output from your EV’s high-voltage traction battery. With a robust IP67-rated enclosure, compact form factor, and automotive-grade reliability, this converter is ideal for EV conversions, off-road electric vehicles, motorcycles, utility carts, and marine applications.
Providing up to 500 watts of regulated power, this unit efficiently steps down your main pack voltage (typically 48–120V) to power essential 12V systems like lights, ECUs, contactors, accessories, and battery management systems—eliminating the need for a traditional 12V lead-acid battery or external charger.
