It works, kind of...
So I installed a 48v buck converter: Szwengao DC-DC Converter. 48V in 12V out. 03A, DC-DC-S-48/12V-NI-03A | Energy Solutions
I wired in a switch, which turns out is only rated to 24v...
The bike powers on no matter whether the converter and light are switched on or off, but if I turn the converter on when the bike is already on it momentarily kills power to the bike, powers down, and then restarts the system. The lights will stay on during this restart. It doesn't make a difference when switching off the converter when everything is on. Note that the converter doesn't get power when the bike is off but the converter is switched on.
Is there a way of reducing the voltage drop through the switch? by adding a relay etc??? maybe @BeBiker @All4Fun have some ideas?
I will source and add a 48v switch, one without an led as it is just too bright.
Cheers,
