10 Male and 10 Female 12v DC Power Jack Adapter Connector for Led Strip CCTV Camera

Many sellers sell this very same item, and Ive seen small variations so there are also at least a few manufacturers. These work well and were the lowest price I could find at the time. The small cinch screws can take either a small Phillips or slotted screwdriver... Ive found that a slotted screwdriver works best as it gets a more secure grip on the screw head. I use these as temporary connections for testing light strips prior to and during installation. I am not a fan of clips and plug connectors for permanent installations because they can be intermittent and almost always fail eventually, causing you to go looking for the bad connection (however, after you find the bad connection its easy to fix). I prefer soldering all connections because that is problem-free and permanent. Some light strips come with a plug pre-installed so all you have to do is connect it to a power source to check out the light color and find any defective LEDs. If there is no plug, no problem - just temporarily install one of these plugs to do the testing. Same with power sources. To test amperage draw, simply build a simple test splice using a male and female and two short lengths of wire. Cut one of the wires in the center to connect in series to a multimeter set to test amps. Actually, even though I said I solder all connections, I do use a male/female connection between the power source and the light strips so I can easily insert my test splice to check voltage and amps in the future when needed. Everything I said applies to CCTV installations as well as LED light strips, or any other 12 VDC application.

I am not sure why, but when I use these connectors on my L.E.D. strips, the lights blink. I disconnect these connectors and wire it straight to the same power supply and they light up solid as they should. I put the connectors back on and... blink. So these are pretty much useless to me and a waste of my money. The power supplies being used are 12V and 1Amp.

Quick to extend wiring without modifying the present plugs

It was what I wanted and I use it as a disconnect

Nice set of connectors. Handy for connecting meter in line with a device to monitor wattage.

These are extremely useful to have around the house not just for the advertised security camera application, but for lots of other repairs or replacement of missing voltage adapters.

excellent product

Very good quality. Highly recommended.

Im really proud of these connectors for not being ashamed of their sex. Bravo! Males and Females

Easy to use easy to wire. Works perfectly with led light runs
