RayFW Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) I have an EBS Multicomp that seems to eat batteries for fun. I reckon it goes through an alkaline 9V in about 8 hours. I know I can solve the problem by using an AC adaptor but I was wondering whether anyone else experiences this or is my unit faulty? Oops. Just realised I've posted in wrong forum. Mods please move if possible. Cheers. Edited February 13, 2008 by rayfw Quote
GreeneKing Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Mine ate batteries too so I resorted the the adapter Peter Quote

My later Black label ones are better but there is a much better and constant signal from using mains power. Seems as soon as the battery is slightly under power, the chorus or octave effect suffers. I often use a Boss pedal board or a cheapo stand alone power supply. Quote
GreeneKing Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Just to add that my Multicomp is a new one so I don't think its a related issue. Basically if I leave it on overnight it results in a flat battery in the morning Quote
