Upgrade your classic car’s unreliable mechanical stabiliser with the plugpal 10V Solid State Voltage Stabiliser with Mounting Bracket, designed specifically for negative earth vehicles. This modern electronic replacement offers a dependable solution for classic cars from the 1950s, 60s and 70s that originally used bi-metallic contact breaker voltage stabilisers.

Suitable for classic vehicles from:

  • MG
  • Triumph
  • Jaguar
  • Lotus
  • Rolls-Royce
  • Daimler
  • Austin
  • Morris
  • Ford

…and many other classic British and European vehicles.

 


 

Reliable 10V Solid State Regulation

Unlike original contact breaker stabilisers that fluctuate with temperature and age, this unit uses modern semi-conductor components to deliver:

  • Stable, constant 10V DC output
  • Accurate fuel and temperature gauge readings
  • Consistent performance regardless of engine revs or electrical load
  • Improved long-term reliability over mechanical units

Maintain classic originality while dramatically improving gauge stability.

 


 

Integrated Mounting Bracket Design

This version features a metal mounting bracket that:

  • Secures the stabiliser directly to the vehicle body
  • Provides the required ground connection
  • Ensures proper operation (must be bolted to chassis to function)

Product details:

  • Two-wire configuration:
    • Red wire – +12V input
    • Green wire – Regulated +10V output
  • Ground is achieved through the mounting bracket
  • Metal enclosure doubles as a heatsink
  • Adequate wire length for flexible mounting options, approx 100mm.

Supplied with:

  • Male 6.3mm spade terminal on +12V input
  • Female spade terminal on +10V output
  • Adapter lead included if a male output connection is required

Alternative terminal configurations may be available on request.

 


 

Technical Specifications

  • Output Voltage: 10V DC (regulated +- 0.5V)
