What size of converter/reducer ?

[mauistardog]

Sorry for the dumb question, but I not good at electrical conversions. The reducer in my cart needs replacing..it is a 36v to 12v. Rated power is 120W with max being 250W, it has an 8amp fuse. In looking at the threads on the site and ebay sellers, they all talk in being 10amps or 20amps etc. what is the conversion from Watts to Amps ? or is there ..bottom line, what size reducer do I need ? or should I just go big

thanks
joe

Amp times volts = watts

The man from Georgia is right

And yeh, just go big I only use 25 amp converters.... I have had too many 10 . 15 even 20 amp units come back melted.....

so mine right now is 10 amps with a peak of 20 amps. thanks, the cart currently has, a radio, two small speakers, turn signals, brake lights, head lights with a high and low settings and a horn. The original was made in Hungary and they wanted over 200 euro plus shipping so I gotta find something local....as in US. :-)

thanks again
