N8XJK Super Booster – 12‑Volt Low‑RFI Battery Booster by TG Electronics - 58515-1777
West Mountain Radio has collaborated with N8XJK to bring back the popular TG Electronics Booster! This unit will help you get the most life out of your battery.
This model improves on a design that has been widely used in Amateur radio for more than 15 years.
The N8XJK Super Booster was specially designed for use with a radio.
When the battery voltage drops, the Super Booster brings it back up to a level that allows optimal transmission. The output level can be set by a trimmer pot to any value up to 15V. The advantage of using the Super Booster is that a Lead Acid battery is rated in Amp-Hours for use down to 10.5V. However, radios require at least 11.7V to transmit. That results in over one-third of the battery's amp-hours being unavailable for transmission without a booster.
For example, with a 100W SSB and a 74AH battery (car size), you get 10 hours of continuous transmit. Using the Super Booster yields at least 15 hours of continuous transmission. Even at the last amp-hour of the battery's life, there is 10.5V and at least 11.7V to the radio. Transmitters tend to be more efficient at higher voltages; there is additional savings by using, for example, 14.5V.
The Booster Remote control/monitor unit is a compact remote head that monitors input and output voltages and error conditions, such as overvoltage and overheating.
Super Booster readily accommodates the remote control or connects units in parallel to achieve 80A or 120A.
