12V DC Distribution Box 5521 Barrel Jack

I was tired of using cheap CCTV camera power splitters to run my astronomy gear, so this box does the trick nicely.

Not as fancy as a Pegasus Astro Powerbox, but works great just for providing enough DC jacks to power gear. Can technically be daisy-chained. 

Working on a V2 with individual circuit relays and possibly a dew heater controller. 

Made to fit this: https://www.amazon.com/OONO-Position-Terminal-Distribution-Module/dp/B08TBXQ7H6

And I used these for the jacks themselves: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09H5L3KN5 but anything similar would probably work. 

In my case, I used two PG7 cable glands on each end to feed wires through, but mix and match to your liking.

4xM3 screws hold the lid on (6-10mm length should work fine)
