Question:
I am needing to know if the PowerMax AC to DC Converter w/ Built-In 3-2-1 Stage Battery Charger - 12V - 55 Amps. Part Number: PM94VR can be hooked to components directly without a battery involved to power what you are needing?

Hey Kevin, yes you can power a DC appliance with the PowerMax AC to DC converter part # PM94VR directly without having to have a battery involved. As long as it draws less than 55 amps this will work just fine. You'd need to set the amperage to fixed on the side switch. I pulled a section from the instructions for this that state how to use it as a power source using fixed mode. What are you planning on powering with this?
