In the above-described conventional DC power supply device, since the boosting magnification of the boosting circuit is fixed, there is a drawback that a sufficient output voltage cannot be obtained when the battery voltage decreases. In addition, if the voltage boosting factor is set high from the beginning, if the battery has sufficient remaining capacity, the voltage will be boosted to a higher voltage than necessary, and this will be reduced by the regulator, which will reduce the voltage conversion efficiency and ultimately reduce the battery life. The disadvantage is that it is shorter.
