AC Adapter 12V 5A Wall Mount | DC Jack 2.1mm

As a Maker, it’s fun to play with all kinds of Electronics, from tiny 3.3V microcontrollers to huge 48V LED Arrays, but while it’s easy to simply utilise a Lab PSU or similar type of controllable output PSU during the prototyping phase, moving your project to a more permanent solution often means having to get just the right power supply that provides the power your project needs, while still fitting into a hobbyist budget. This is why we strive to stock as many different types of Power Supplies as possible, to give Makers like you many different options to choose from when deciding on a final design, ensuring that you don’t have to compromise on power capabilities or quality in order to get your projects running and doing the awesome things they are designed to do.

This AC Adapter 12V 5A Wall Mount PSU is one of many Wall Adapter PSUs that we have in stock, and offer a beefy 60W total output via a convenient 5.5x2.1mm DC Jack. This makes it quite versatile, as it can easily be regulated down or up to various other voltage levels with ease, or can simply provide a chunky 5A at the set 12V level. Of course, with the brand Mean Well being responsible for creating this beautiful little PSU, you can expect a high level of quality and a long-lasting lifespan if used in the right conditions, and while this much power would be typical of larger Enclosed Switching PSUs, this unit has been designed with a surprisingly compact form factor, being just around the same size as a phone charger or similar standard wall mount AC adapter. All of this comes in at a pretty great hobbyist-friendly price range, and it’s easy to see why this PSU would be beneficial for almost all 12V applications, and we’ve found them to be extremely useful as handy extra Power Supplies to keep around the office and workshop.
