Default Special electrical charger needed...

Where may I find a charger that I can regulate the Voltage and Amprage?

Looking for something that will give me at least 2-3 Volts and 2-3 Amps.

So far Harbor Fright, Grainger, and NAPA can not help.

Been trying the internet but with no luck.

Thanks.

Pluck

Check Amazon -
I got a great solid state 6 volt to 12 volt convertor so I could us 12 V LED stop lights on my Model A. Since the A was positive ground all I needed to do was make sure the wiring was correct for the LEDs.

A laboratory power supply might do what you want. https://www.jameco.com/z/LABPS3003SM...D_2245503.html

x2, I agree.. You are looking for a variable voltage power supply with separate.variable current liming. I have not seen a battery charger that has both of these features.


Perhaps EBay, swap meets, or some other place that sells used equipment. Look under DC power supplies, or variable DC power supplies.

I use one of these on my car. I know it’s just a tender but it works great and it auto detects between 6V and 12V.
