the only problems with these barrel connectors. is that the pins in the middle are a bit too short for some devices. i using the the big barrel with the yellow tip and because the connection pin is too short in the middle it's not making contact with the power connection of my snes jr therefore not giving the system power.
I probably don't have nearly as many old electronics with weird barrel jack adapters as you guys (off the top of my head, a Motorola Xoom, an Acer Chromebook, and an IdeaPad, and of course none of these are interoperable), but I was so happily surprised when my ThinkPad's main power supply was USB-PD. Yeah, it was the _only_ type C connector (which means I have to use a passthrough hub if I want to use that thing for data without draining the battery, and _good_ passthrough hubs are very few and far between), and they used a massive chonky overheating brick for the power supply when Anker has USB-PD adapters that were half the size and nowhere near as warm. Also the USB connector on the cable was straight, which promptly started exerting torque on the connector; I switched that to a right-angle cable ASAP. Type C connectors can be quite long. Nice Buddha scans/prints. We desperately need a decent 3D scanner. We have a Sense. It's a toy.
That's a really nice LCD display. Good work, Joey!
"this is cursed" had me rolling.... :)
I can tell you at least one very well known thing that uses that 3.5mm phono jack for power.
The Atari 2600.
Highlight of my week! Great new products! Keep it up AdaTeam!

Those adapters are brilliant, definitely putting them on my next order.
2:02 people who've lost the charger for their "toys" can now rejoice
Ooooh those step switches are quite interesting! Between those and the knobs I want to make something (-8
These are very broad and vague for something called “oddly specific” ;P haha
Sweet 808 buttons!
