An iota DLS 240VAC power supply / charger might just do what you are looking 
for hear quite cheaply.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Converter from 230VAC to 12VDC
Importance: High

Hey folks:

I’m trying to assist a friend with a defunct hydro system in Ecuador; actually, 
the hydro system is the only thing working.  It’s (I assume unrectified) output 
is 230VAC 50 htz and about ~500W,  and they want to step it down for charging a 
12V battery bank.  I’ve tried to get them to look at other voltages but a lot 
of their loads are 12V, and this IS a very primitive system.  It’s in a 
rainforest so there is no solar resource to speak of.  They will be running 
some 120VAC 60 htz loads (like computers and phone chargers) but they already 
have a bunch of DC led lights in place.  It gets dark there at 6 pm every night 
and the forest is so dense, solar is not an option.

Do you know of anyone that offers or can manufacture such a converter?  This is 
for a school and clinic that gets displaced from weather, equipment failures 
and mercenaries.

Feel free to contact me off list.

Best,


Chris Daum
