Stripping 12V AC/DC Adapter for Spectre Monitor Smart Mirror Power—Is It Safe?

Im attempting to build a smart mirror so i stripped a spectre monitor down to the monitor and noticed that when i plug in the 12v ac/dc adapter it protrudes outside the picture frame I made for the smart mirror. So was wondering if it is possible to strip the ac/dc adapter down to it’s copper wiring and somehow connect that to the monitor. Or able to remove the power input of the monitor and turn it over 90 degrees. (Black input is the power input)

Abdi I can see two solutions:1. Get a right-angle plug to go in the power socket.  You may be able to buy a suitable 12V power supply with such a plug on it - no soldering.  Or you may have to cut the existing plug off the power wire and solder a new one on - you should be able to buy one at any good electronics shop, take the power supply with you so you get the right thing.  Make sure your new plug has the right polarity (+ and - in the same places as the old one.  You'll need a meter for this, and soldering skills. Google "right angle dc power plug 2.1 mm" for some possibilities, but your plug may be a 2.5 mm type - this is why I suggest taking the power supply with you when you buy one.2. You could remove the board and unsolder the power socket and just solder wires in instead.  This is a LOT more work and unless you are careful you risk breaking your TV.  Only do this if you can't use solution 1!

Found a very thin right angle plug that worked out perfectly, really thought the second solution was going to be the only way for this to work out but it turned out better than I expected. Thanks for the help David!

Great Abdi, glad this was a good solution.  Cheers // David
