DS-Power3 Power Supply -New- Adjustable from 8.5 to 20V

Full voltage control for your slot circuit with the DS-Power3

The DS-Power3 Power Supply (ref. DS-0003B) is the track electronics solution you need when you want to decide how far the power goes into your circuit. With an adjustable voltage range between 8.5 and 20 V, it covers everything from relaxed enjoyment sessions to more demanding configurations aimed at club competition.

Main features

• Adjustable voltage: from 8.5 V to 20 V, adjustable according to your usage needs.
• Reference: DS-0003B.
• New Version: update of the previous DS-Power3 model, with improvements incorporated by the manufacturer.
• Designed to power slot circuits in a stable and controlled manner.

Why does voltage regulation matter in slot?

The supply voltage is one of the parameters that most influences the behaviour of cars on the track. At low voltages, the motors run slower, which is ideal for initiation sessions, very light cars, or tracks with very tight technical curves. As we increase the voltage, the motors respond with more power and the cars reach higher speeds, requiring greater skill at the wheel and car preparation. Having an adjustable power supply like the DS-Power3 means you decide the level of demand at any moment, without needing to change the power supply.

Recommended applications

• Slot clubs that want to standardise competition voltage and adjust it according to category.
• Hobbyists with a home circuit looking to adapt power to the type of car or participants (adults, children, beginners).
• Tuners who need to test the behaviour of their setups at different voltages before a race.

Aspects to consider

Before acquiring this power supply, ensure that the voltage range is compatible with the motors and electronics of your cars. Some high-spec motors have maximum voltage recommendations from the manufacturer that should be respected to preserve their lifespan. Always consult the motor's technical sheet before raising the voltage to the upper limit.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the DS-Power3 and a fixed power supply?

A fixed power supply always delivers the same voltage, with no adjustment possibility. The DS-Power3 allows you to select the voltage within the range of 8.5 to 20 V, making it much more versatile for different uses, cars, and experience levels.

Is it suitable for use in competition clubs?

Yes. The voltage range it offers perfectly covers the usual values used in clubs and championships, and the ability to adjust it makes it a very practical tool for the session organiser.

Can I use this power supply with any slot car brand?

The power supply feeds the track, not the car directly, so it is compatible with circuits of different systems. The cars running on that circuit will receive power through the track and the contact braids, regardless of their brand.

What improvements does the "New" version include compared to the previous model?

The designation "New" indicates that it is an updated version of the original DS-Power3. To know the specific improvements compared to the previous model, we recommend consulting directly with our team, as the specific technical details of this revision are not published in the available documentation.

Do I need any additional accessories to connect it to my circuit?

It depends on the type of connection your track uses. Check the compatibility of connectors before installation, or contact us for guidance.

The DS-Power3 adjustable power supply (ref. DS-0003B) by DS delivers a variable voltage output ranging from 8.5 V to 20 V, making it a reliable and flexible choice for slot car track setups. Whether you run a home layout or manage a club racing session, this unit gives you precise control over track power, adapting to different car types, motor specifications and driver skill levels. Compatible with standard slot car track systems, it is the go-to power supply for hobbyists who demand consistency and control.
