All packed and ready but not collected by Fedex yet.

When you open the package you’ll find the bracket taped in between 2 wooden blocks. We packed them this way to prevent them from bending if something heavy is dropped on top.

Emile, for the router: 2.1MM or 2.5MM DC? I know the switch is 2.5. Making up some cables and thinking ahead...

2.5mm

While on that subject there are different 2.5mm DC connectors, the higher current versions clamp better, so if you’re rolling your own I’d recommend to get the stronger clamping (higher current) variety.

reading with interest, I was pretty underwhelmed (bendy, plasticky insulation, they do not accept 14AWG etc) by the few Oyaide DC plugs I've used recently but haven't found anything more decent.
 
I actually don’t know and can’t find the insertion depth but my preference would be a 11.1mm insertion depth plug.

This is a 8.3mm insertion depth plug:

LOL! Let me see what I can find out...

As Francisco's attachment shows it 14MM maximum insertion depth. Better than 8.3
Depends on if those plastic rings can be removed?
LOL! I think the O-Rings can be attached and detached. I will dig a little deeper...

there are 3 of them and they can all be removed. However, they aren’t spring loaded.
 
The Ring Spacer can be varied to 9.5MM, 11mm, 12.5MM, and14MM.
 
I know! I have a huge repertoire of music Koko Taylor to Maria Callas and obscure, eclectic, music in between. Hard to believe I never came across Fink...Its a great change up...
I guess I started something. Happy that my random post found such receptive ears.
