500W 48V to 12V High Efficiency DC DC Converter for Reliable Power Regulation 2
500W High Efficiency DC to DC Converter 72V to 12V for Low Speed Electric Vehicles 1

500W High-Efficiency DC to DC Converter | 72V to 12V for Low-Speed Electric Vehicles

This 500W DC to DC converter is designed for low-speed electric vehicles, like sightseeing buses, golf carts, and commercial trucks, to efficiently convert 72V battery power to a stable 12V DC supply for accessories such as auxiliary batteries, lights, and dashboard instruments. Optimized 500W Electric Vehicle DC-DC Converter: Seamless 72V to 12V Power Regulation Enhance your electric vehicle's performance with our Optimized 500W DC-DC Converter, providing a seamless transition from 72V to 12V for reliable power regulation and accessory functionality
  • The battery pack in an electric vehicle typically has a high – voltage output. For example, the battery voltage of many electric vehicles may range from 48V to 800V. However, different components in the vehicle, such as the low – voltage electrical systems (usually 12V or 24V), require a stable and lower voltage supply. The DC-DC converter steps down the high – voltage DC from the battery to a lower, regulated DC voltage (12V in this case). This allows it to supply power to components like lights, infotainment systems, and various sensors that operate on a lower voltage standard.
  • If the original vehicle had a 12V electrical system for accessories and now has a high – voltage battery due to the electrification process, the DC – DC converter ensures that these  12V components can still work properly.

CMVTE Car Dashboard Display E-620 Instrument Cluster

Elevate your club car golf cart experience with the E620 Digital Dashboard, an all-in-one informational hub designed to bring car-like sophistication to your ride. This sleek car digital dashboard not only enhances your cart's aesthetics but comes equipped with an intuitive speedometer, ampere meter, and coulombmeter, giving you complete control over speed and power metrics. Integrated with a crucial buzzer alarm function for timely warnings, and seamlessly connected via CAN signal from the motor controller, the E620 Dashboard is the upscale, functional upgrade your golf cart deserves.
  • This is a 12V instrument cluster, which can indicate converted vehicle speed, battery capacity (SOC), turning signals, Forward&Reverse gear etc.  
  • The design and shape is not designed specially for Beetle/Bug, because original meter is small round type, but due to CAN BUS in the controller and battery BMS, the original car meter can only indicate speed of vehicle, can not indicate battery capacity. So you can choose to use a new electric instrument cluster like this type or to use a very simple battery capacity meter only, then you can keep the old Beetle meter to show speed, and this new simple battery capacity meter.电量显示12 36V CAN
  • Or you can choose a more premium smart meter which combines functions of media& entertainment and speed&battery indicator, except as a normal electric car meter, it also has bluetooth, music and movie player, reverse camera, car play etc.  more details you can consult with our sales person. 4 scaled

12V vacuum pump booster

In some electric and hybrid vehicles, a vacuum pump may be used to provide brake assist. The vacuum pump ensures that there's sufficient vacuum pressure for power brake assistance. This is especially important in situations where the regenerative braking alone may not provide enough deceleration force.

In conventional fuel vehicles, the vacuum assisted brake pump uses the vacuum generated by the engine intake manifold to provide power.

In the process of changing from oil to electricity, the vehicle power system is changed from a fuel engine to an electric drive system, but the brake system still needs help to ensure that the driver can easily press the brake pedal. The vacuum assisted brake pump can maintain this assisted function.

Compatible with the original braking system
Oil to electric conversion kits usually want to use as much of the braking system components of the original vehicle as possible. As an important part of the original brake system, the vacuum booster brake pump can be well compatible with brake pipe, brake caliper and other components.

Questions About Smart Fortwo Conversions

Yes, we provide all electronic parts for conversion.  We also provide wire diagram system, each part user manual, so you will have no obstacles for installation and connection of the system.

Yes, we provide motor spline coupler and adapter plate to install motor to original transmisison. But the original transmission’s clutch need to get removed. If you want to keep clutch, you need modify the spline coupler to clutch a bit. Because we do not have car in hand, so we bought a old transmission without clutch to make the coupler and adapter kit.

We provide two years for battery, and one year warranty for other parts. We only use top grade quality products. If any parts failure from manufacturing issues, we provide repair parts for replacement.

If we have stocks ready to go, the lead time is one weeek after order confirmed.  if we have no stocks, lead time might be 4 weeks after order confirmed.

After you have discussed with sales manager all details of the order, he or she will make proforma invoice with all details and bank accounts for payment, normally payment is through bank to bank T/T. Other payment ways are also flexible to accept after discussion.

We only use top brand of cells in China, like EVE, like Gotion etc, most of the case we use EVE brand pure new and A grade cells to make pack. And in our battery pack we surely use real automobile grade BMS, not simple protection board.
