Hi, I found they have a website, http://www.siliconchip.com.au/ June issue I
think.

 "Adjustable DC-DC Converter For Cars - Simple circuit can be set to deliver
any output voltage from 13.8-24V at up to 2A. And it can charge 12V 6.5Ah
SLA batteries _ by John Clarke"

Regards,
g at z.

Please do, g at z - I have never noticed an _Up-converting_ kit at DS or
Jaycars - I've been looking regularly.... I found a voltage doubling kit
in a similar store in Germany a couple of years back and use it for my
"in-PC power amplifier" (10Wx2 HiFi amp running off the PC power supply
but at 24V).
This one can't be regulated to other voltages though....
