- TypePower
- 10 A rating handles high-power LED and monitoring gear
- 5 mm × 2.1 mm barrel fits common DC jacks
- 30 cm pure-copper 18 AWG cores give strong conductivity
- Two pigtails in the pack let you wire multiple devices
- 5 mm outer diameter keeps the cable flexible for tight installs
What this cable does and who needs it
This pair of 30 cm barrel pigtails carries 10 A through a 5.5 mm by 2.1 mm female plug. Pure copper 18 AWG conductors supply LED strips, monitors or other DC gear that uses the same barrel size.
Behaviour under sustained load
The 12-strand 0.12 mm² copper core keeps resistance low during continuous 10 A operation. A 4.5 mm outer jacket protects the wires from abrasion when the cable runs behind panels or along chassis rails.
Build quality and daily fit
Each pigtail ends in a moulded female barrel that mates securely with matching male jacks. The short 11.81 inch length reduces voltage drop and cable clutter in tight enclosures. Buyers who need a different barrel diameter or longer reach cannot use this set.

Questions about this item
Does the 18AWG wire on this pigtail get warm when I run a 10A load all day?
The 18AWG conductors are rated for 10A continuous current, so they stay within safe temperature limits during extended use.
My device has a 5.5mm x 2.1mm barrel jack — will this female plug mate with it directly?
Yes, the 5.5mm outer diameter and 2.1mm centre pin match that jack size exactly.
Can I solder the 12×0.12mm bare leads to an older LED strip that uses 18AWG wire?
The 12-strand 0.12mm copper core is 18AWG, so it solders cleanly to the same-gauge wires on legacy strips.
