The Elcano power supply is a 36V battery on the Catrike recumbents or a 48V supply on the ELF. The picture shows three 12V lead-acid batteries connected in series to provide 36V. The fourth box in the top of the picture is a plastic case that houses a circuit board and two DC-DC converters. The converters output a 12V supply and a 24V supply. All power lines are color-coded with the right color wire when possible and with the right color Anderson connectors. The power lines are:
- Ground: Black
- Pink: 5V (not commonly used between modules)
- Orange: 12V
- Red: 36V or 48V power
