You can easily run a good amount of power through a barrel jack but ONLY if it's higher voltage, most you'll see that are >100W will be 19V or higher. Otherwise the current required will be far too much to safely push through a barrel connector. If you're stuck on 12V for some reason then yes I would absolutely avoid a barrel jack.


What's the enclosure like?

Does it need to be portable?

Does it need to be tamper/kid/pet resistant?

Is there any reason it needs to have a separate AC/DC and DC-ATX?
