I wanted to stabilize my LED lighting circuit voltage using a buck/boost converter. When the LED's are dimmed you can see alot of fluctuation from battery voltage change like when the water pump cycle...
I've used a booster on a wall wart that was only 11.5 volts and pushed it upto mid 14's, then fed the PWm dimmer with that for a stick and brick project. The Phillips bulb brightness at 14.5 compared to 11.5 was vast. It dimmed pretty well too but got crusty on the low end before the LED just shut off.
I did not run it long, as the LED did not illuminate the surface as nicely as hoped, Halogen it will have to be. Warm white LED is still too artificial looking.
