DC Plug Sizes
Posted by: trag on 2018-05-08 21:12:16
I'm posting some plug sizes for the DC end of AC adapters for various accessories.  If someone knows of an online resource that already collects this info, let me know and I'll stop...  I hope this will become a collection where we can look much of this up, when we're trying find a replacement, or when we want to adapt a device to another power supply for other reasons.    My own motivation is too many power bricks in the wiring closet.   I've purchased a 20amp 12V power supply:

and I don't want to cut the cords off the power bricks, so I need to build pigtails to run to the various devices in my wiring closet.

I'll have to take the wiring closet apart to get most of the voltages and amperages, so I'll add those later when I'm ready to build my multi-device power brick.
