When mechanical shafts are rotating, a simple gear train can deliver power to a shaft at one speed from a shaft at a different speed. However, fluid power can be converted from a source with one pressure-flow ratio to another pressure-flow level without rotation by using the switching action of a hydraulic ram. Similarly, when AC power is being delivered from an AC source, a simple transformer can be used to convert power at one voltage level to power at another voltage level with low losses. Likewise, the switched action of an SMPS can convert DC power with low losses. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply
Power your DC devices using any wall outlet. This 13.8VDC 15-amp power supply allows you to use household AC to power 12 to 13.8VDC electronic devices or automotive accessories that have banana plugs or bare wire leads. It's ideal for use on a test bench when working on car stereos, CB sets or other communications equipment.
- Accessory outlet accepts any standard power adapter up to 15 amps
- Built-in accessory socket can charge or power another 12VDC device while you work
- Fused circuitry provides extra protection for your devices in the event of a power overload
