On a 3S pack that's a problem: the battery starts at 12.6 V and spends most of the flight below 12. The PowerNODE 12V steps up as well as down, so it holds a regulated 12 V ±4% at about 2 A from any 3–30 V input, start of flight to landing. It's sealed in a fully potted aluminum housing that also spreads heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3–30 V input (2S to 6S LiPo) to a regulated 12 V ±4% output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep-up\/step-down design: a true 12 V from a 3S pack, even as it sags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbout 2 A typical output current at 80–90% typical efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReverse-voltage protection to 30 V, over-current protection, thermal shutdown and under-voltage lockout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully potted in a black anodized aluminum case: nothing exposed, nothing to shake loose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngineered to DO-160G and MIL-STD-810H environmental standards; −10 °C to +55 °C operating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67 flanged DB9 connector with gold contacts and 4-40 jackscrews, plus a remote ENABLE pin to switch the rail off from your flight controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in our FAA-approved manufacturing facility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTypical uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e camera gimbals · strobes, nav and payload lighting · LTE \/ 5G modems and routers · Ethernet switches · 12 V sensors and mission payloads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 V ±4%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput voltage range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3–30 V (32 V absolute max)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~2 A typical with input near 12 V; less at low input, more at higher input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTopology\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStep-up\/step-down switching regulator\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEfficiency\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80–90% typical\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReverse voltage (to 30 V), over-current, thermal shutdown, under-voltage lockout (~2.5 V)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo-load current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~1 mA typical\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnvironmental\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngineered to DO-160G and MIL-STD-810H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e−10 °C to +55 °C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP67 flanged DB9 male, gold contacts, 4-40 jackscrews\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDB9 pinout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 GND · 4 VOUT · 6 GND · 8 ENABLE · 9 VIN · 2, 3, 5, 7 not connected\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eENABLE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOn by default (internal pull-up to VIN); pull below 0.7 V for low-power shutdown.

For more than a decade we've also flown large unmanned systems: multicopters, VTOLs, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. Every Node Electronics part is made in our FAA-approved manufacturing facility, housed in anodized aluminum, fully potted, and engineered to DO-160G and MIL-STD-810H environmental standards, the same standards certifiable UAS autopilots are built to. It's the hardware the unmanned and optionally piloted industry needs when \"good enough for a hobby build\" isn't.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Node Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67835264663604,"sku":null,"price":449.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0773\/3565\/8548\/files\/PowerNode_PN12_07_c84fdc86-5949-42ea-93b3-1818bd972b33.jpg?v=1793035910"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0773\/3565\/8548\/collections\/PXL_20261025_200501834.jpg?v=1793035276","url":"https:\/\/node.aero\/collections\/powernode-dc-dc-converters.oembed","provider":"Node Electronics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
