Cioks are amazing :)

I've been a DC7 user for about 18 months now and it's been incredible. Running 14 pedals off it and only hitting 40% of usage. In order to do that, I obviously had to run some split cables and a daisy chain, but a couple of pedals introduced a touch of noise, as is very common with sharing power outlets/daisy chaining. I recently picked up the CIOKS 8 as an extender (it's powered off the output of the DC7) and thus giving me 15 isolated outputs. Performance has been flawless and it's easily the best power supply I've ever used.

Yeah I found that I had a bit of trial and error finding which pedals worked best via daisy chaining. I probably won't sell my C4 for that very reason, already maxed out on outlets and have some holes to fill!

So the DC7 and the exploding Model FeT plot thickens somewhat, just recalled someone at work mentioning thunderstorms earlier in the week. I did a little googling and it was on Monday evening which was when it happened. Coupled with some very hot weather perhaps it was in fact a power surge that caused it.

 

If it was a surge then the surge protection afforded by the extension I use clearly did little to help. I don't really want to drop £200 on a furman unit or similar. Then again if it happened again it could easily cause more than that in damages.
