Yes, if you parallel it with a car battery. Chargers typically put out pulsating DC, not pure DC. Pelts do not like pulsating DC, according to an article I read. That is why they do not work well with using Pulse Width Modulation to regulate their temperature. By paralleling a car battery with the charger, the battery has the effect of a large electrolytic capacitor and filters the pulsating DC into pure DC. If you have one, you can also substitute a large value electrolytic capacitor for the car battery.
