Description

This Camvolt adjustable voltage regulator is a versatile DC-to-DC step-down (buck) converter designed specifically to solve compatibility issues with factory reverse cameras and other low-voltage accessories. It safely and efficiently reduces a higher vehicle voltage (e.g., 12V or 24V) to the precise, lower voltage required by your camera or device, preventing damage from over-voltage.

Key Features & Specifications:

  • Input Voltage Range: 3.2V - 30V DC (Wide range suitable for 12V and 24V vehicle systems).

  • Adjustable Output Voltage: 1.25V - 28V DC (Continuously adjustable via a small screw potentiometer).

  • Maximum Output Current: 2 Amps (Max continuous power: ~10W without a heatsink).

  • Critical Rule: Input voltage must be at least 2V higher than the desired output voltage for proper regulation.

  • Heat Management: Outputs above 10W require an external heatsink to prevent overheating and ensure stable performance.

Core Purpose & Benefits:

  • Factory Camera Compatibility: Enables the safe use of a factory reverse camera (often 6V) with an aftermarket head unit that provides a standard 12V reverse trigger, or vice-versa.

  • Universal Voltage Matching: Protects and powers any sensitive electronic device (LEDs, sensors, small screens) that requires a specific, stable voltage lower than your vehicle's supply.

  • Adjustable Precision: The onboard potentiometer allows you to dial in the exact voltage your device needs with a small screwdriver.

  • Compact & Reliable: A solid-state solution for clean, regulated power in automotive, marine, and DIY electronics projects.

Typical Applications:

  • Adapting Factory Reverse Cameras: Stepping down a 12V reverse trigger signal to 6V for a factory camera, or boosting a lower signal as needed.

  • Powering Low-Voltage Accessories: Safely running 5V USB devices, 3.3V sensors, or specific LED modules from a 12V/24V source.

  • Prototyping & Testing: An essential bench tool for providing a variable DC power supply during electronics projects.

Installation & Usage Guide:

  1. Connect: Wire the INPUT terminals to your vehicle's power source (observing polarity).

  2. Set Voltage: Before connecting your device, use a multimeter to adjust the output screw until the desired voltage is reached.

  3. Verify Rule: Ensure your input voltage is at least 2V higher than this set output.

  4. Connect Device: Wire your camera or accessory to the OUTPUT terminals.

  5. Monitor Heat: If operating near the 2A/10W limit, attach the module to a metal surface (heatsink) for cooling.

  • I have made multiple purchases from this company, and their service consistently exceeds my expectations. Last week, I urgently needed some parts and, based on my previous positive experiences, I chose TINKR once again. As expected, their service was exceptional. A special thanks to Greg at TINKR for a job well done.
