220V to DC 3V Transformer Power Supply for Gas Water Heaters
Eliminate Battery Hassles — Power Your Gas Water Heater from the Mains
Tired of replacing batteries in your flue-type gas water heater? This compact 220V AC to DC 3V Power Supply Transformer lets you permanently ditch the battery box and run your water heater directly from a standard mains outlet. With a built-in transformer circuit board, it converts household 220V AC power into a stable DC 3.0–3.5V output — exactly what your water heater needs for reliable ignition every time.
Why Upgrade to a Mains Power Supply?
- Consistent Ignition: Low or dying batteries are a common cause of ignition failure and misfiring. A steady mains-powered supply keeps ignition strong and dependable.
- No More Battery Replacements: Save money and the hassle of sourcing and swapping batteries regularly.
- Simple Drop-In Replacement: Designed to replace the existing battery box on your flue-type gas water heater — no complex wiring required.
- Generous 1.8M Cable: The long lead gives you flexible placement near your water heater without needing an extension cord.
- Safe & Stable Output: Regulated DC 3.0–3.5V / 1.2A output matches the standard battery voltage your heater expects.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of water heater is this 220V to 3V transformer compatible with?
A: This transformer is designed specifically for flue-type gas water heaters that use a DC 3V battery box for ignition. If your water heater runs on two D-size or similar batteries providing roughly 3V DC, this transformer is a direct replacement for that battery compartment.
Q: Is installation complicated?
A: No — installation is straightforward. The transformer simply replaces the existing battery box on your water heater. Connect the output leads where the batteries would normally sit, then plug the transformer into a standard 220V mains socket. No specialist tools or electrical knowledge beyond basic appliance maintenance is required. If you are unsure, consult a qualified technician.
Q: Will this work with 110V or other voltage systems?
A: This unit is designed for AC 220V input only. It is not compatible with 110V mains supplies without an additional step-up converter. Please ensure your mains supply is 220V before use.
Q: How long is the cable, and is it long enough to reach a wall socket?
A: The cable measures 1.8 metres (approximately 6 feet), which provides generous reach for most bathroom or kitchen installations where the water heater is located near a power outlet.
