Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What devices is this 5V USB power cable compatible with?

A: This cable is designed for any device or DIY project that runs on DC 5V USB power. It is ideal for LED lighting strips, USB-powered lamps, small fans, and other hobby electronics that accept a standard 5V input via a bare 2-pin wire connection.

Q: How does the inline ON/OFF switch work?

A: The inline switch is located along the cable and simply interrupts the power flow when toggled to the OFF position. This lets you turn your connected device on or off without unplugging the USB connector from the power source — very handy for fixed lighting installations.

Q: Are the wire ends pre-stripped or do I need to strip them myself?

A: The cable ends are provided as bare 2-pin wires (red for positive, black for negative), ready for your DIY project. You may trim, strip, solder, or use connectors as needed for your specific build.

Q: What is the maximum length of this cable?

A: The cable is 1 metre (approximately 3.28 feet) in total length. Please note that minor deviations of a few millimetres may occur due to manual measurement variations.
