Greetings to All. I have a 48 volt off-grid system, with an inverter. Some loads I run directly off the battery bank, such as the fridge. I would like to try to run a security system comprised of components that will run 48 volts. The issue is that the battery voltage varies between 49 to 59 volts. I wonder if anyone has experience with a small regulator circuit to control the battery bank voltage to get a regulated 48 volt supply?

You didn't state the amps or watts needed. I believe Powerstream makes a 48 volt DC regulator. Something like 2 to 3 amps IIRC.

Hi. Likely 5-6 amps at 48v

Look for a DC-DC converter on Ebay - Depending on the current draw something like this should work..
