1. A power converter for use in a stack light of a type providing a set of beacon modules interlocking to each other and to a base unit by means of interlocking mechanical connectors, and interfitting electrical connectors positioned at a top and bottom of each beacon module and at a top of the base unit together allowing multiple beacon modules and one base to be mechanically and electrically assembled into a tower with electrical communication between the base and each beacon module, the power converter comprising:

  • a housing;

    first and second mechanical connectors positioned at a top and bottom of the housing adapted to releasably interlock with corresponding mechanical connectors of beacon modules and a base;

    first and second electrical connectors positioned at a top and bottom of the housing adapted to releasably interface with corresponding electrical connectors of beacon modules and a base; and

    a power conversion circuit positioned within the housing and receiving electrical power from the second electrical connector having a parameter of at least one of voltage and a mode to provide converted power to the first electrical connector having a different value of the parameter.
