Bought to replace a cheap rectifier I bought of eBay and haven't had any issues. Easy to wire up and well made.

Purchased a great 12V landscape lighting transformer/ timer; but when it arrived, it was 12VAC. Needed to supply my new LED lights (rated 12VDC). This full wave rectifier was small enough to easily install at the transformer /timer, and it worked flawlessly! Markings on the rectifier made it easy to ID the AC and DC terminals, and the terminals themselves were very sturdy. Entire package was well designed!

If, like me, you find yourself in the position of needing to install an LED lightbar on your riding mower, but have come to discover that the manufacturer only provided AC current to the headlamp bulbs, then this is the item for you.Simple in operation, breathtaking in elegance, and an item of joy and wonderment to behold for generations, the NTE53016 rectifier will confidently power your modern LED lighting. This will probably annoy your neighbours when you sweep their back yard with your newly-installed Thousand Suns of Lighting at 2am, but that is their problem, not yours.Buy one. Buy twenty. Use them as tortilla chip substitutes. What's important is that you avoid regret by purchasing, and purchasing NOW.

I'm trying to add LED lighting to an ATC with AC current to the lights. I did a little research and thought this is what I needed along with a capacitor to stop the LED flickering. Well, this set up works fine and this product seems to be of high quality, but I'm getting DC 40v and above when revving the engine now, so I obviously need a regulator. A little more research and I'm finding regulator/rectifier available all in one package. I think I'll go with one of those rather than adding a regulator to this set up. Seems like a 5 star product even though it's not right for my application, that's my fault, but maybe I can help someone else from making the same mistake.

Works fine! I used it to convert the lighting coil output on my Coleman CT200U-EX to DC to charge a small 12V batter after adding LED lights to make it street legal. The lighting coils put out 8 VAC at idle, and I got 8 VDC out of this rectifier. It's perfect for this application since the bike produces 12-14 VAC at cruising rpm, and about 7 amps, just enough to keep the battery charged.

I used this on an older 1032 Bolens snowblower to fit it with 54W worth of LED lighting (two pods up the handles, and one large 36w light centered on top of the auger housing). Wired the two yellow wires into it coming from the stator of the 10hp Tecumseh. I measured no voltage loss - 28v AC coming in, and 28v DC going out. With the lights on, the voltage dropped to 20v. No flickering of the lights! I had no need to install a capacitor either. Very happy with it. I used a stainless #10 bolt to keep this rectifier mounted to the underside of the control panel by the handles.I bought another one for retrofitting an arctic cat batteryless snowmobile with an led headlight and taillight. Worked great! The stock electrical system is 13-15VAC. The led lights required DC. I mounted this rectifier near the stock voltage regulator. I intercepted a yellow AC wire leading to the taillight, and redirected it to one of the AC terminals on this rectifier. Ran the opposite AC terminal into a brown wire, which is the common or ground wire. Ran the DC negative terminal to an engine ground (personal preference). Ran the DC power output of this rectifier to the taillight and the dimmer switch (cut it off from its AC yellow wire and supplied it with the DC current coming from the rectifier.Couldn’t have easily done this without the help of the factory wiring diagram in the factory service manual.

Specs inadequate.

I have this on my KTM 200 EXC dirt bike to power about 40 watts worth of LED lights. I have a 36 watt LED light bar up front and a small LED tail light. This rectifier is well above the 3 amp draw of my lights, however the 10,000 watt (200v*50a) rating of the unit seems excessive. This unit converts the bike's stator's AC output to DC good enough to run the LEDs. Bolt hole in the center allows it to be bolted to a large piece of metal to pull heat away, although I have not noticed the unit even getting warm during use.
