Hello guys
I wanna install LED lights on my moped, as it keeps blowing my normal bulbs, probably because it is tuned a little bit
At first I figured I could just use a regulator we use at work, you know, rectify the AC and the out comes the DC through our regulator (based on LT1074).. But it turned out not to be that easy.
The power I get from the AC is about 20-70VAC, but havent measured going down hill or real fast, so to be safe I would say up to 100VAC or so.
What I need on the output is 12V and able to draw atleast 225mA, so I'd say 500mA to be safe.
Now, if I can just regulate the AC down to a maximum of 40V that would be great, cause then I can just connect our regulator from work, but if this requires a whole new circuit - no problem
I hope you guys can help me out a little here, I have searched high and low all over the internet, and havent quite found what I needed.
So to sum up, I need help with regulating 20-100VAC down to a 12VDC/500mA.
