Eisco Lab's "power pack" is a low-voltage power supply that operates on 110V power and outputs 6 or 12V at 2A, either AC or DC, selectable by convenient switches. The unit measures 5.25 inches wide, 5 inches long, and 3.5 inches tall, and includes a 6-foot power cord. This power supply is ideal for use in electrical engineering labs, where students can utilize it to understand the differences between AC and DC currents and how various electrical components react to different types of currents. It's also suitable for electronics courses, providing hands-on training with low-voltage AC and DC circuits, learning about rectifiers, transformers, and power electronics. The power supply is useful for prototyping and testing circuits and components like LEDs, motors, or small solenoids that may require either 6V or 12V DC or AC. Many development boards, such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi, can be powered using 6V or 12V DC, providing flexibility for different setups. Sensors and actuators often require stable power supplies, and having both AC and DC options can be useful for various tests. Additionally, many remote-controlled models and toys operate on 6V or 12V DC, and a dual-mode supply can provide reliable power for these projects. Hobbyists working on home automation, small robots, or other DIY electronics projects can benefit from this versatile power supply. Furthermore, some portable medical devices, such as small pumps or diagnostic equipment, operate on low voltages and may need both AC and DC for comprehensive testing.
