Product Information

BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger

High-power power supply in slim format
Designed to power audio amplifiers without the need for battery use
Provides more than 65% extra power over a time interval (3 to 4 seconds), ensuring power during audio dynamics
Can be used as a charger battery by adjusting the output voltage between 13.8 and 14.4V DC
Output voltage can be adjusted between 12V and 15V
Has an output voltage adjustment knob and voltage level indicator LEDs (12V/13V/14V and 15V)
Features a smart ventilation system that reduces noise level and maintains necessary cooling
Bold and compact design, taking up as little space as possible in the sound design
Suitable for most automotive sound design projects

Product Usage Instructions

Connect the BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger to the audio amplifier or other devices that require a fixed voltage of up to 15V.
Adjust the output voltage between 12V and 15V using the output voltage adjustment knob.
Use the voltage level indicator LEDs to assist you during adjustment.
If you want to use the BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger as a charger battery, adjust the output voltage between 13.8 and 14.4V DC.
Whenever the BOB STORM function LED is accessible on the panel, this indicates that the function is enabled and the source is enabled to provide extra power.
When the BOB STORM function LED is lit, the source is enabled to offer more than 200 amperes on its output.
Enjoy the extra power that BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger provides over a time interval (3 to 4 seconds) to ensure power during audio dynamics.

PRESENTATION

BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger are high-power power supplies in slim format, designed to power audio ampliﬁers without the need for battery use. They provide more than 65% extra power over a time interval (3 to 4 seconds), ensuring power during audio dynamics.
BOB STORM Fonts and Chargers can be used as a charger battery; just by adjusting your output voltage between 13.8 and 14.4V DC.

OPERATION

PERFORMANCE
Performance with BOB STORM dynamic power: Provides extra power greater than 65% of the source rating (120 amperes) for a time between 3 and 4 seconds. This feature makes it possible to maintain the ampliﬁer’s power during higher power requests, present when there are peaks in the volume of the sound, especially when they are low frequencies (bass). Whenever the current drops from 120 amperes, the 3-second time is reset and the source returns to provide extra current at the output.
When the BOB STORM function LED is accessible on the panel, this indicates that the function is enabled and that the source is enabled to provide extra power.

VERSATILIDADE

Output voltage adjustment: BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger allow the user to choose the output voltage between 12V and 15V .
This feature is ideal for systems without batteries, allowing to power the ampliﬁer or other devices with a ﬁxed voltage of up to 15V, and obtaining maximum power of the ampliﬁers.
BOB STORM function indicator on: Whenever the LED is lit, the source is enabled to o er more than 200 amperes on its output.
Output voltage indicator: The BOB STORM Sources and Chargers have an output voltage adjustment knob and voltage level indicator LEDs (12V/13V/14V and 15V) to assist the user during adjustment.

COMFORT

Slim shape: With the highest power density, BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger have a bold and compact design, taking up as little automotive sound design space as possible, making them ideal for most projects.
BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger have a bold and compact design, taking up as little space as possible in the sound design, without compromising power, which make them ideal for most projects.
Smart Cooler: BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger feature a smart ventilation system. when the source is turned on, the fan rotation is reduced by actively adjusting to the need of the source, which reduces the noise level, maintaining the necessary cooling and raising, to the maximum, the lifetime of the fans.

Control panel: Displays the output voltage information, BOB STORM function activated and on source status, and allows the user to adjust the output voltage.
Ventilation: Forced ventilation supply inlet (do not block);
Connector protection cover: Protects the output connections from the source;
DC output connector: Connect to battery terminals to bus or equipment to be powered, always checking the correct polarity of connection;
Fixing: Direct screw fastening system on the metal chassis of the source, ensuring greater strength and robustness;
AC connection: Supply connection with the power grid. Use the compatible connection socket and do not use adapters and/or line ﬁlters;
Ventilation outlet: Forced supply ventilation outlet. Do not obstruct.
CONTROL PANEL
LEDs indicating output voltage reading;
Knob of output voltage adjustment (12V to 15V);
LED indicating that the source is on;
LED indicating that the dynamic output power control (BOB STORM function) is on.

USE THE BOB POWER SUPPLY FOR CHARGING BATTERIES
BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger allow the output voltage to be adjusted and can thus be used as a battery charger. With the aid of a multimeter, simply adjust the output voltage by 14.4V for a full load (it is not recommended to keep 14.4V more than 12 hours). For battery charge maintenance (ﬂuctuation), simply adjust the output voltage to 13.8V.
WARNING: BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger are designed to prioritize battery-without operation. When using the battery charging source, the output voltage control is manual. Applying high voltages and currents for long periods of time can damage batteries.

FIXING AND CONNECTION

BOB STORM Power Supply and Charger have a robust fastening system, allowing them to be securely secured by the metal chassis (ﬁgure 1), which prevents the plastic from being damaged, giving greater safety in the installation.
To remove the connector attachment cover, pull the cover with your ﬁngers, (ﬁgure 2) by exposing the screws to the connecting cables (ﬁgure 3). JFA-
