## Description

This was an automatic import from Adafruit's product data feed - see Adafruit's [Power Adaptors](https://core-electronics.com.au/power-batteries.html#category_654) category for Australian approved options.

This is a beefy switching supply, for when you need a lot of power! It can supply 5V DC up to 10 Amps, running from 110V or 220V power. ***Please note this does not come with a power cord*** - As a hobbyist you're likely to have buckets of spare Australian IEC power lead's for this switching supply, but if you're running short you can grab one [here](https://core-electronics.com.au/2m-iec-c13-10a-3-pin-black-appliance-mains-lead.html)!
 
The output connects to a 2.1mm DC plug. There's a green LED indicator lamp as well.
 
These will be great for people who want to power 5V LED strips or a lot of motors for a CNC project. Using a separate supply like this can be easier than trying to modify an ATX power supply as its smaller, quieter and has a plug on it ready to go!
