Voltage Stabilizer, Voltage Regulator, Power xxxx, whatever... These are some big marketing words out there to promote these products. Many many brands out there all doing the same thing... Stabilize voltage, remove "noise" in the electrical signal.... Some swore by it, giving power, better audio... brighter lights...
So.. I have this unit of Deizin Volt Stabilizer. Which was installed in my Civic and transfered to my Lancer and now in the EvoX. As I was taking this unit out of my Civic. (Yes, these pictures were taken 5 years ago) I found out that the circuit looked simple.. so I decided to 'clone' one of this...
Picture showing the Unit itself... It was around 1 year old and still functioning well. (I tested using Multimeter). It looked clean because I just cleaned it using SOFT99 car polish.. hehehe
After disacting it... hmm.. looks too simple...
1 LED
1 resistor
1 capacitor
2 fuse
4 Huge Capacitors
Looking at the Circuit. So simple.. So I got a piece of paper and started to trace it..
OH yeah.. DONE... This is the draft...
And here is the Schematics of the circuit...
Theorically, it should work the same since the circuit is the same.. The +ve volt will go to the circuit, protected by the Fuse (incase it shorted, it will disable current from going thru) and charge up the Capacitors. Once charged, I tested using Multimeter, it shows 12.5 Volts... and when I remove this from the battery, the charge will slowly reduce down to 0volt.. takes around 4 - 5minutes with the load of the multimeter.
Well... If you decided to DIY your own, just refer to the circuit diagram above...
But these days, a lot of CHINA Cloned units, which are dirt cheap and works the same... Just get it off shelf and DIY install la... easy :D
Happy DIY!
