I'm designing a new product (volume ~100 per year) and I would really like to use a little brick DCDC module rather than rolling my own design.
However i'm having trouble finding a unit that matches my needs.
It must run from a 12V or 24V lead acid battery (so thinking 9-36V module)
Output Current >=2A
Adjustable output voltage that can do ~5V to 14V or can be fixed 13.8V if it has it's own adjustable current limit (most don't)
Price under ~US$26
Must be SEPIC for step up and down. (this is where i'm having trouble finding something)
Cannot be a cheap china module, known brandnames only (i know lots of those exist and have used them for other projects but this thing needs to be reliable

The reason for the SEPIC is that it will need to charge a 12V SLA from a 12V or 24V SLA (universal input 12/24V SLA)
I could add some sort of bypass electronics to bypass the reg if the input is 12V, but that gets messy.
And I know that a DCDC module is not a battery charger. I plan to put a current sense on the output and feed that back to the reg voltage adjust to reduce output voltage.
Any ideas welcome? or links to converters that might work.
Alternatively, if i have to roll my own DCDC for this, can anyone can recommend a manufacture DCDC design tool that i can plug my specs into and it will spit out a design for rapid development. That would be great
