Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this sold as a single connector or a pair?
A:This product is sold as a complete set, including one male DC barrel connector and one female DC barrel connector.
Q: What does 'DC 5.5*2.1mm' refer to?
A:It's the standard physical size of the connector plug: 5.5mm for the outer diameter and 2.1mm for the inner pin diameter. This is a very common size for low-voltage electronics.
Q: How waterproof is this connector?
A:The interlocking male and female barrel connection is designed to be waterproof. However, you must also use a waterproof method (like soldering and heat shrink tubing) to seal the wire splices.
Q: What is the advantage of 18AWG tinned copper wire?
A:18AWG is a relatively thick gauge that handles higher current with less performance loss (voltage drop) than thinner wires. Tinned copper provides excellent conductivity and superior resistance to corrosion.
