Victron Orion-Tr 24/12-5 (60W) DC-DC Converter — Compact Step-Down (24V → 12V)

The Victron Orion-Tr 24/12-5 is the smallest, lowest-cost step-down converter in the Orion family — takes 24V input and provides 5A at 12V (60W). At just $15, it's the price-of-a-pizza solution for powering a single low-current 12V device from a 24V chassis. IP20 indoor enclosure (not waterproof — see the IP67 series for wet locations).

Important: This is a CONVERTER, not a CHARGER. Constant 12V output to power a 12V load; not designed to charge a battery.

What 60W will power

• Single 12V LED light or strip
• 12V radio / two-way comms
• GPS unit
• USB charging port (multiple outlets if low-draw)
• Small 12V instrument cluster
• 12V cooling fan
