Hi, need a dc converter for a 2001 48v club car. It has an idp on it now that's bad. Was wondering what u pros think I should put on. It has a winch, headlights, and turn signals. Thanks

Re: Dc/dc reducer
Better check the specs, [amp draw] on your winch before ordering. Those babies can pull some major juice!

 I would put the winch on a separate relay controlled circuit and keep all else on the reducer. |

Re: Dc/dc reducer
Sounds simple. Wasn't aware of 48v winches.

Re: Dc/dc reducer
There is no such reducer that I've ever seen that is capable of providing enough power to properly power a winch. A 30 amp reducer is the biggest we carry. I've seen hundreds of 12 volt winches running on two batteries without a reducer at 16 volts and I've never seen an issue because of it. It's just a simple electric motor. The same concept as what plenty of us here on this forum do when we run 36 volt motors on our 48 volt carts.

Re: Dc/dc reducer
Agreed no reducer will handle the draw from a winch, connect to 12-18v and move the connections around the pack if you use the wench a lot
 I mean winch. So you are not always drawing on the same pair |
