Dell AL-1250 60W power adapter
The Dell AL-1250 is a 12V 5A desktop power adapter rated at 60 watts. It suits devices that need a regulated 12 volt DC supply with a maximum draw of 5 amps. Typical uses include LED strip lighting, LCD monitors, CCTV cameras and 3D printers. Indoor use only.
Fits 5.5 x 2.5 mm and 5.5 x 2.1 mm barrels
The cord terminates in a 5.5 mm barrel plug with 2.5 mm centre pin; the spring contact also accepts a 2.1 mm pin. Polarity is centre positive, sleeve negative. Total cable length is 205 cm. Place the brick on a hard, flat surface with clearance; soft surfaces block ventilation and cause overheating.
100-240 VAC input limits global use
The adapter accepts 100 to 240 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz, so it works on mains worldwide without a voltage selector. Output is fixed at 12 volts and cannot be adjusted for other voltages. The 5 amp ceiling means it cannot power loads that exceed 60 watts or require higher current.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the Dell AL-1250 adapter is delivering the correct 12 V 5 A output after I plug it in?
Check that the connected device powers on and runs stably; the adapter’s built-in UL-certified protection against over-voltage, over-current and over-temperature will shut it down if the output drifts outside the rated 60 W.
What comes in the box and do I need to buy any extra cables or tips?
The package includes one adapter with a 205 cm attached cable ending in a 5.5 × 2.5 mm barrel plug that also fits 5.5 × 2.1 mm sockets; no additional cables are required.
The listing mentions several Dell models — how do I know the AL-1250 is the right one for my monitor?
Match your monitor’s power label to the adapter’s fixed 12 V DC, 5 A (5000 mA), 60 W rating and centre-positive 5.5 mm barrel connector; if those figures agree, the AL-1250 is compatible.
