      • Battery Charging: Create custom high-voltage battery chargers (e.g., 24V/36V/48V/60V from 12V source).
      • LED Driver: Power high-power LED arrays requiring specific higher voltage input.
      • Motor & Pump Power: Provide stable, higher voltage to DC motors or water pumps from a lower voltage source.
      • DIY & Hobby Electronics: Essential for custom power projects, robotics, and experimental setups.
      • Industrial Control Systems: Integrate into control panels requiring stable, regulated higher DC voltages.

      Installation & Usage Notes

      1. Input/Output Connections: Connect your input voltage source to the VIN+ (Positive Input) and VIN- (Negative Input) terminals. Connect your load to the VOUT+ (Positive Output) and VOUT- (Negative Output) terminals.
      2. Polarity: Observe correct polarity carefully. Connecting the input or output with reverse polarity may damage the module or connected devices. There is no built-in reverse input polarity protection.
      3. Voltage Adjustment: Use a small flat-head screwdriver to gently turn the multi-turn potentiometer clockwise to increase the output voltage, and counter-clockwise to decrease it. Always adjust with a voltmeter connected to the output to monitor the voltage.
      4. Minimum Voltage Difference: The output voltage must be higher than the input voltage for proper boost operation. Ensure a difference of at least 2V-3V for stable performance.
      5. Cooling: While an integrated heatsink is present, for continuous high-power operation (especially above 300W or in high ambient temperatures), additional forced air cooling (fan) may be required.
      6. Current Limitations: The 400W output power is achieved under optimal conditions (e.g., sufficient input voltage, adequate cooling). Ensure your input current source can supply the necessary current. (Output power = Input power * Efficiency).
