A set of led lights will barely effect range, I wouldn’t even think it would be a noticeable difference

So no current lost with the regulator ?

Very minimal, most buck converters work in the upper portion of 90%. And that is percent of the current they are drawing.

Example: you need 24w at 12v. So 2amp current

Pack voltage is let’s say 36v to get 24w we only need 0.66667a to reach 24w. Then 95% so let’s say we input 36v at .66667a (~24W) output will be 12v and 1.9a (22.8W) very minimal losses and hardly any current draw.

These were just random numbers I pulled out I don’t think you will be needing 2a draw for some led lighting unless you are going for a high power front light

Well thank you very much for this clear explanation ! Really interesting stuff to replace or even to charge some shredlights while riding !
