Review on ⚡️ HiLetgo 5pcs USB 2.0 A Male to DC 5.5x2.1mm 5V DC Connector Charging Barrel Jack Power Cable - Black (Max 2.5A Power Cable, Center PIN Positive) by Jessica Lewis

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Very low gauge cable - 700mA max load

USB-A 5.5 x 2.1mm cables Bought from two different brands and different lengths. The longer cables are much larger wires and properly power my 5V devices. Not this cable. It will barely handle 700mA. Tried multiple power supplies rated at 2.5A or higher. Absolutely not support more than 700mA load. The internal structure of the 2.1mm pen is not standard. Any connection to the power supply generates a lot of line noise due to a poor connection. The power connections on these cables were so bad that the small audio amplifier generated almost constant static/linear noise, like the volume knob on an old dusty radio. Another brand with a longer cord connects securely to the power jack and provides enough quiet power. I thought about taking pictures of all the readings and such, but it just isn't worth wasting my time with such crappy cables.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • It's fine
