    transformer theory is easy...the input / output are a direct relation to number of winds, IE: 4 input winds to 3 output winds equals a 4 to 3 step-down and vice versa for a step-up.

            Transformers are AC (not DC). It needs to be AC to create the EMF-electro-magnetic-force (or field). Then they rectify the AC into a DC voltage (this is where your DC input goes to) and then they regulate it.

              Just please be careful around the capacitors (look like cans) because they pack a good punch even after your charger has been off for awhile.

                    I almost forgot.....Diego, send it back because usually the OEM of the transformer will reimburse the seller of the charger.

                              Jeepers, it will allow a certain wavelength of light pass thru when modulated by a specific radio frequency. In other words, it's a part of a laser.
