woolz Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 ok i have a powerbank which runs all my pedals. bought the mxr blowtourch this week. been running it through the powerbank. then today realised it needs an 18v power supply. ?? why does it need this? my current one seemed to run it fine! Quote
Silent Fly Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 The BT needs 18V for its circuits. I guess for more headroom. I while ago I contacted MXR and I asked if the BT can run at 9V. They said that 9V won't damage the pedal but it might sound better at 18V. Quote
lemmywinks Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 You can get adapter cables like this one: [url="http://www.diago.co.uk/component/page,shop.product_details/flypage,shop.flypage/product_id,39/category_id,3/manufacturer_id,0/option,com_virtuemart/Itemid,206/"]http://www.diago.co.uk/component/page,shop...art/Itemid,206/[/url] Pricey though, haven't seen a cheaper alternative either. I just used to use a seperate power supply when i had my Blowtorch Quote
woolz Posted August 27, 2009 Author Posted August 27, 2009 its cheaper than buying a new power station i know that!!! Quote
