BigBassBob Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Hi guys, I recently hooked up a pair of LED strips to the underside of my pedalboard. They're 12V DC (running at 9V), have a current draw of about 150mA and are running off the daisy chain from a Onespot: [url="http://smg.photobucket.com/user/BigBassBob/media/2013-09-01205428.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://smg.photobucket.com/user/BigBassBob/media/2013-09-01205443.jpg.html"][/url] I've been testing the board at home and haven't noticed any form of hiss/hum/noise as a result of these lights running on the same daisy chain as my pedals. I was wondering if anyone can foresee any potential problems with this setup? With my limited knowledge of electronics I'm fairly certain they won't cause any issues but I'd just like to check with people who are more knowledgeable than I Cheers, Bob.

BigBassBob Posted September 5, 2013 Author Share Posted September 5, 2013 [url="http://www.oznium.com/led-ribbon"]http://www.oznium.com/led-ribbon[/url] They don't come with a 2.1mm barrel socket; they're a pair of pins (one +, one -) and you put the barrel jack in so that they light up as so: http://www.oznium.com/linear-light-power-adapter-wire/tech [url="http://www.oznium.com/linear-light-power-adapter-wire/tech"]T[/url]hanks for the feedback, guys I like to keep things simple as more the stuff I have going on the more likely something is going to go wrong! Glad to hear they should be alright. Cheers, Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanAxe Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 All you need to do now is fit a set of alloys to your pedalboard and drive it around the town centre late at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
