Cheapest power supply that doesn't hum

[Pinball]

I got one of these Belcat units recently after reading good user reviews, It does the job fine. It's only £30 with cables and adapter or even cheaper on its own. It works noiselessly with my pedals.

The supplier is Gear4music.

The Thomann unit looks nice, but would not be adequate for many digital pedals, at only 120ma per output. My programmable delay pedal draws 300ma and the tiny Mooer Reecho takes 128ma. Fine if you're running all analogue, and they're drawing 5-50ma though. I use a Soundlab unit that's a bit like this, and it's fine with all my analogue pedals.

I couldn't find rating information about the Belcat unit, other than it uses a 15V 1A supply, so hopefully as long as the total draw isn't more than 1 amp all should be well.

1Spot by visual sound £20 and then buy a diago daisy chain both are top notch no problems with the 1Spot ive had it a while now and its powered up to 11 pedals at one time without any noise now powers around 6

I've been using a 1 Spots for years with no noise issues. Mine currently powers 10 pedals. It delivers 2A (2000mA), and has around 3 metres of cable too. They're great.

I've been using a Godlyke Powerall to power all except the Moog LPF (it won't share power with other pedals without making a noise about it). It's 1.7A & I got it from DV247 for @ £18.
They don't seem to stock em anymore.

Including me. I did have a bit of noise, which I tracked down to one particular pedal & it disappeared when that was swapped out. That's a chain with 12 pedals powered from that one supply.

I use a 1Spot (1700 mA) ... powers 13 pedals/buffers on the board plus sometimes an additional DI with no noise issues.

I also have a Godlyke. Never let me down.

I just used a bog standard cheapo 9v adapter with a 7 plug daisy chain. Noiseless and works like a dream.
