Trying to Hide cable using DC Port extension, thoughts ??
I recently mounted my Meural using swivel mount. I was thinking to hide the loose cable with following. 1: Purchase DC cable extension (male to female), this is the link Amazon.com : IBERLS 2-Pac...
That low of voltage/amperage shouldn't be an issue. I'm not an electrician but I've ran plenty of wiring and low voltage in my home.
If you're worried, simply make sure both ends aren't within the wall or use an in-wall conduit setup. I've snaked a flexible conduit into a wall before for running other wires.
i think that cable you linked to is only capable of 3A according to its spec sheet.
You'll also want to be careful with making sure you're not running the cable to far. You'll get voltage drop with longer cables.
It might also void your warranty by using a non-approved power cable.
Thanks for your key inputs, I liked the idea of keeping connectors outside the wall.
However as it turned out, I didnt need to use extesion, I found alternative way to slide the meural cable up, with out having need to cut too big of holes in the dry wall.
