Hello,
I want to move the power bricks from my Kessil lights further away from the aquarium. Is there a cable that would work between the light and the power brick? Waterproof?

I was looking into extensions awhile back and found a couple links in my otherwise incoherent notes...
I don't think this is what you are looking for: Kessil light extension cable
Maybe this power brick extension but not sure about the connectors since I have no lights at home: https://www.tunze.com/US/en/details/KSUCB19-19v-dc-power-extension-cable-6-feet-18-m.html
Seems like you could use a generic power extension but wait for knowlegeable people to answer here or I would check with Kessil - they have always been very helpful to me and have probably heard all installation requests.

They exist. Would mostly be a question or matter of identifying the right size of the end of the male adapter out of the power brick to ensure proper size.

There are some pretty long ones, yet they likely wouldn't be specifically branded for Kessil, hence figuring out the adapter size would let you have more options for a search for compatible extensions.

The one listed above would fit, yet doesn't look very long, maybe 6ft or less if I were to guess.


Waterproof depends on what you mean by waterproof. Secure from water splashes? (normally safe as is, if pushed all the way in, wrap the connection in electric tape if you want more confidence) If you mean something you want to be capable of being submerged under water? (nothing I would risk)
