jasperok Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Well gonna be expanding my pedals (from zero to three!) I am looking at a multi power block but my pedals have an odd enough requirement 12v 500ma 12v 1200ma and i presume a handful of regular 9v fellows can you suggest anything that will suit? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasperok Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) sorry to be sure i have it right: The supply can be rated at a greater amps (say 5 amps) than the pedal (say 1200ma) that means a 12v power supply rated at 5 amps could theoreticly supply a good 12v feed to 4 1200ma 12v pedals? not actually going to be doing that but checking the theory Edited June 17, 2009 by jasperok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasperok Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 ok so its not strictly bass effects but it is to the end of running them I have a ghetto idea but the lack of electronics knwledge is working against me! left over from my PC modding days i have a 100% adjustable power supplys a 12v and a 24v like hose listed below.

jasperok Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 the amp rating lets me down though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I can't find the exact spec but I thought it had a good 3-4 amps which is more than enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
