Description
FALL 2024 UPDATE: Lumberg has discontinued their wildly popular 1614-09 power jack and replaced it with . . . the almost-identical 1614-23! (It's total length is about 0.9 millimeter longer than the previous version, in addition to even smaller changes. If you're curious, you can click on the technical drawing in our image carousel for all the specs.)
When plugging into this power jack, you will need to use more insertion force than you're used to. That's because this new version has an even more secure grip of the power plug than the old one. Which, if you're really going wild on stage and tend to bump your pedals enough to unplug them (like I used to do all the time), is a feature that may give you peace of mind.

Ladies and Gentlemen! The authentic Lumberg Thinline DC Power Jack!
We call it the "Thinline" for obvious reasons. It's slim, trim, and superb for builds in tight spaces. (See its threaded barrel diameter of 7.7mm vs. the 12.3mm threaded diameter of a standard switched DC jack.)
Why buy authentic Lumbergs? You're getting a notch above in materials and manufacturing quality. Lumberg uses plastic that is sturdy--not brittle--and a durable, precisely aligned center pin.
The generics are good for budget builds (and we sell 'em here), but when you want to ensure the best no-fail DC tiny power jack out there, get a Lumberg.
