The Iota DLS chargers are incredibly tolerant of frequency and voltage
fluctuations.

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
