Excellent video in all aspects. Will use power supply to power led lighting system for home, and led outdoor lighting. Tanx!!!

It will work for short PSU - camera cable lengths no problem. On leads longer than ten feet, unless you use 16 guage wire you run into voltage drop issues, and that camera doesn't like to see much under 12 V. The PSU is regulated at EXACTLY 12V, and low quality cables can induce a voltage drop of more than 1 - 2V. The camera will beep at anything less than 12V, I think. Use at least a 400 watt ATX PSU, and remember if you get the polarity wrong your camera will burn up. BE CAREFUL!

some remarks:
1) this is an atx power supply. at supplies are the even older ones with a wired power switch that goes to the front button on a computer, and they have smaller connectors / fewer voltages for the motherboard.
2) if you strip off the connectors anyway, cut the wires close to the board so the next time you need a molex or atx connector, you don't have to butcher another supply.
3) you may damage an atx psu if you switch it on without a load connected
4) tape may come loose.

very well done. I probably would have removed the unused wire from the board. unless you knew you were going to use these additional lines.
