Listers,
I have a question for you.
I have a 12V electrical system with two batteries and one alternator. I would like to power 24V position lights. What must I do to accomplish that?
Is there a 12V to 24V step up device that can be installed to power only those lights? I don't want to change the entire system to 24V.

Yes. See:

http://www.surepower.com/conv.html

They make DC-DC converters that will upconvert 12V nominal to 28V to
power 28V loads in various current ratings from 10A - 40A.

The DC-DC converter will be pricey (and heavy.) Why not just run 12 volt
position lights?

<Warning - Blatent self promotion>

If you have an experimental, may I suggest one of the LED position light
kits I sell.
