What size barrel for Neptune Apex 24v

cthetoy · Apr 11, 2022

I have lots of 24v power supply laying around. Trying to extend my Trident 20 feet away. Anyone know what size is the barrel plug I can order easily online?

20 feet away from your tank? You can not extend the black pick up tube on the Trident.
You could buy one of the universal power supplies that come with interchangeable tips for them. They are on Amazon and only a few dollars more than one that has a fixed tip. A 24v 2A version will work.

My sump is in the garage as well as my EB832 however its getting warmer in the garage and wanted to move the Trident next to my tank instead so the reagents can be kept at room temp rather than the warm/hot garage.

Makes sense.Remote sumps are the best.

Something like this is what I was talking about:
