Cheap 12V DC bench top power supply
Was looking for a 12V DC power supply for doing light bench test stuff needing 12V DC like radios. Gage back lighting etc. Found a cheap 110AC to 12V DC inverter on evilbay. I think it's really for charging a computer. Anyways for $9 it was mine. I made a bracket out of scrap sheetmetal. Added a car charger, lighter plug, and 2 insulated lugs to attach alligator clip leads to it. Going to pick up a male lighter plug with 25 ft of cord which I will add alligator clips to. This will be perfect for testing isolated circuits like lighting in a car with battery unplugged, and connectors pulled apart. Will eventually add an on/off switch in the extra drilled hole, and attach it to the book shelf but for now will just unplug it. Easy project that adds versatility to your shop.
Hope ya like.
