Twigman Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 OK so here's the thing..... i run a board from a t-rex Chameleon Specs here: [url="http://www.t-rex-effects.com/fueltank-chameleon/"]http://www.t-rex-effects.com/fueltank-chameleon/[/url] Currently it runs just a BBE Optostomp, a COG Custom Khyber Pass chorus and a Boss TU-3 tuner - so all low current draws. I am considering adding an EBS Valve Drive pedal to my rig. [url="http://www.t-rex-effects.com/fueltank-chameleon/"]http://www.ebssweden.com/content/valvedriveDI.php[/url] which according to the specs page above draws 700mA.. Depending on where one looks the T-Rex Chameleon says it can supply either 300mA or 350mA per 9V output but there is provision for current doubling if you can find a current doubling cable...t-rex have them on their site: [url="http://shop.t-rex-effects.com/collections/cables/products/green-current-doubler-cable"]http://shop.t-rex-effects.com/collections/cables/products/green-current-doubler-cable[/url] I have had an e-mail exchange with a well known (on here) supplier of the EBS Valve Drive who states: [quote] [size=3]the EBS would be a great choice and should work with any good power supply unit.[/quote][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]I'm not so sure....[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]I know the EBS comes with its own PSU but I don't think its switchable to 110V and I hope to be going to US soon so it would need US leccy.[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]So I was wondering if it could run off the Chameleon - I'm still non the wiser....[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]What say you?[/font][/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twigman Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 Bought a DHA VT1 EQ DI MK2 instead plus a T-Rex current doubler that allows the use of 2 x 12VDC supplies from the T-Rex delivering 600mA Mr Hall reckons that'll be more than enough... Looing forward to delivery... probably going to whack a 12AU7 in instead [i have a 12AY7 and 12AT7 too to try] so there's not so much overdrive going on....
