Description
USB 5V to 12V DC Boost Converter Cable LDO-888
This all-in-one cable contains a DC-DC boost converter that converts a USB-A 5 V input to a regulated 12 V DC output. For the full rated output of 12 V at 1 A (12 W), the USB power source must be capable of supplying the required input current; not every computer port, power bank, or USB charger can do so.

🔧 How to use
- Connect the USB-A end to a 5 V source that can supply the necessary current.
- Connect the 5.5 × 2.1 mm DC plug to a compatible 12 V device.
- Turn on the USB source; the boost converter powers on automatically.
- Check the output voltage with a voltmeter if needed.
⚠️ Safety and use notes
- Do not exceed 12 W output (1 A at 12 V).
- Avoid long USB extension cables and low-power ports, which may cause voltage drop or unstable operation.
- Do not sharply bend or pull the cable; protect the built-in converter module.
- Leave space around the converter housing in the middle of the cable so it can dissipate heat.
- Confirm the connected device accepts 12 V DC and the plug polarity before use.
