Unless I'm misreading, it doesn't need a DC power source. It's 120v AC powered but the heating circuits are DC. Conversion is all internal to the control unit.
Changing the voltage won't change the efficiency. Wattage is what determines heat output. Wattage is Volts x Amps If you crack open the controller and mess with the voltage assuming you don't increase the amps, you do reduce power consumption but you could achieve the same effect by simply turning down the thermostat so it runs for a shorter period of time.
