DC-DC Boost Converter Step-Up Power Module 150W–1200W
DC-DC Boost Converter Step-Up Power Supply Module — 150W, 400W & 1200W Options
Upgrade your electronics projects, automotive setups, solar systems, and DIY builds with this high-efficiency DC-DC Boost Converter Step-Up Power Supply Module. Available in three power variants — 150W (6A), 400W (15A), and 1200W (20A) — each module delivers stable, continuously adjustable output voltage with overcurrent protection and impressive conversion efficiency up to 92–97%. Made in Mainland China.
Why Choose This Boost Converter?
- Three Power Variants: Select the module that fits your application — compact 150W for laptops and portable builds, mid-range 400W for LED drivers and solar regulators, or heavy-duty 1200W for industrial and high-current demands.
- Wide Input Voltage Range: Accepts DC 8.5V–60V input (varies by model), making it compatible with standard 12V, 24V, 36V, and 48V power sources.
- Adjustable Output Voltage: Continuously adjustable output from 12V up to 83V (model dependent) using onboard potentiometers — no external tools required.
- High Conversion Efficiency: Up to 96–97% efficiency minimises energy loss and reduces heat build-up during sustained operation.
- Overcurrent & Reverse Polarity Protection: Automatically reduces output voltage when input current exceeds the rated limit; 1200W model includes 150A MOS reverse polarity protection for safe long-term use.
- Robust Heat Dissipation: Aluminium heat sinks (up to 116×58×14mm on the 1200W model) and high-frequency, low-impedance capacitors keep thermals in check during high-load operation.
- Dual Short-Circuit Protection (1200W): Input-side 30A fuse combined with circuit-level protection for added safety.
- Industrial Operating Temperature: Rated –40°C to +85°C, suitable for automotive, outdoor, and industrial environments.
- Flexible Mounting: Screw terminal connections and standard copper-column mounting make installation quick and tool-friendly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the 150W, 400W, and 1200W boost converter modules?
A: The three variants differ in input/output voltage range, maximum current, and physical size. The 150W (6A) module is compact and suited for laptop charging and small electronics up to 35V output. The 400W (15A) module supports higher current applications like LED drivers and solar regulators with output up to 60V. The 1200W (20A) is the heavy-duty option with output up to 83V, large aluminium heat sinks, and 150A MOS reverse polarity protection — ideal for industrial and high-current DC power conversion tasks.
Q: Do I need a fan for cooling when running these modules at full load?
A: For the 1200W module, a 12V cooling fan is recommended when input current exceeds 10A or output current exceeds 10A. For the 400W module, enhanced heat dissipation is advised when output current exceeds 7A. The 150W module can handle up to 100W without active cooling; with a fan, it can reach its full 150W rating. Always ensure adequate airflow for sustained high-load operation.
Q: Can I use these boost converter modules to charge batteries?
A: Yes. All three modules support battery charging applications. For battery charging, it is recommended to connect the module to the load (battery) before adjusting the output current using the CC-ADJ potentiometer. Ensure the output voltage is set correctly for your battery type before connecting. The constant current (CC) function allows precise charging current control within the rated range of each module.
Q: Is the output voltage adjustable, and how do I set it?
A: Yes — all modules feature continuously adjustable output voltage via onboard potentiometers. Turn the CV-ADJ potentiometer clockwise to decrease voltage and counterclockwise to increase it. The default factory output is typically set to 19V. If you have a multimeter, you can easily verify and fine-tune the output to your required voltage before connecting any load.
