Well,... it may be a situation where I, once again, failed to come up with the best "Search Term" to tickle the fancy of the "Puter" ,...But, after searching the archives here on "A A Circuits" I found nothing that comes close to answering this query...
The situation is one I'm sure you all have been exposed to before,..." Not enough info"...
This is likely going to be in your response to me,...But here goes...
I have in my hand a NOS (New Old Stock) Voltage converter that's designed to be used in the auto/Marine world,...IE... 12 Volts DC in and a proposed 120 Volts DC out,...pretty slick for the operation of power tools drills,saws vacuum cleaners and the like... I thought so too..!
Here's the obstacle...: I can no longer locate the hook up directions to this yet unused piece of gear... And Yes,... I've been down the road to try to find a telephone number or E-mail connection to the manufacturer,...to no avail.. ( I'm fairly sure,at this point, that they are no longer still in business..)
There are seven different wires (In a single group) that emit from the roughly 3" by 4" plastic case that also contains a single switch to select either 12 Volts DC or 120 Volts DC,...(not to be switched while the engine is running).and a lil Red indicator light. So,... it's not a case of just a power wire and a ground or two. (If needed, I can list the wire colors and guages)
This lil converter was produced by 3B&D Products Inc,Out of Ogallala,Nebraska...Probably about the late sixties or early seventies... The package lists several different brands of automotive alternator systems that this piece is appropriate for IE...Ford,Delco.Chrysler,Chrysler with electronic regulators,as well as Bosch..
So, my request of you fine electronic/electrical folks is this...
What is your best guess as to where I would find a link to some or all of my missing hook up info,(or can someone here, direct my hands for the hook up..??)...Seven wires,(a couple or three of a much heavier wire guage) leave a lot of different wiring combinations,... and as you've probably guessed, electricity,...Is not my Forte
Thanks so much, for all who may become involved,here,...................... Dave.. or wilga12
