Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It's been tossed around a bit and functions 100%. Having a few of these on hand for different applications is helpful. This board hardly comes near a class iii product, but for an average user and small project, it is every bit worth the money.

This buck converter works as expected with a nice voltage meter as a bonus. Seems to be right on the dot with my volt meter. Display free studs.

Use a small flat-bladed driver and make sure it's seated. Turn the little screw on the blue box component counter-clockwise to lower the output voltage.

I use mine with my bench power supply to use with raspberry pi, and other devices that require precise 5 and 3.

Just the pins and solder against the plastic shipping wrapper. The pushbuttons are very convenient.



Cons

After about 10 min, something is this converter blew and it shorted my power supply and ccc (computer) on my rowe r-89 jukebox. The pot for adjusting the voltage appears to have an issue. At random, the output voltage changes. Max input is 40 volts do...  Read More

Quality


This dc to dc converter works very well, it measure the incoming and outgoing voltage accurately.


I like the digital display for ease of adjustment and it worked perfectly for my intended use which is to reduce the voltage fr...  Read More


Out of frustration i just started to turn it counter clockwise “a million“ turns and finally the voltage dropped.


Diesplay has on/off plus input, and output

Shipping


I have to say i didn’t like the shipping package.

Packaging/appearance


The little blue box at the top with the tiny brass screw, you are going to move that counter clock wise to decrease the output ...  Read More

Competitiveness


The screw-heads seem more of a crossed flat than a real philips.


I also tried a 9v battery with similar results.

    The light that i am supplying power to is 3


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was really worried that i may have a defective board as i had to really keep turning the voltage out adjustment screw clockwise which seemed forever but eventually dropped from 12v to 3


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The connections are pretty small and the display will fail if you make any mistakes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Again it’s probably one of the best for what it is


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Install was very easy since power in and out are clearly marked along with polarity


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    By this time i had been told to go ahead and power it up as no damage would be done just so that i could get the voltage close to or under what i needed as a just in case preventative move


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As i read the reviews it was said that i should check output voltage with my voltmeter and that i shouldcould calibrate the onboard volt meter as well
