12V 5A switching power supply
72 units available with a short lead time.
Warning: This power supply ships with a US/Canada/Japan plug. It is not certified for use in Australia. You can use a plug adapter or replace the cable with a standard figure-8 (IEC C7) cable.
A high-capacity 12V 5A (60W) switching power supply for projects that need serious current. Accepts 110V or 220V AC input, with a 2.1 mm DC barrel jack output and a green indicator LED.
Ideal for powering LED strips, CNC motor drivers, and other high-current 12V loads. Using a dedicated 12V supply like this avoids the instability of repurposed ATX power supplies, which often have poorly regulated 12V rails when the 5V output isn't also loaded.
