Title: Power supply
Post by: Gizmo on November 30, 2007, 01:08:18 PM

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good power supply that deals with a variety of power levels not just 9v.

I think I saw a link on here regarding a company that makes such a device and then you purchase various add-on leads depending on the type of pedal/polarity and voltage required. i.e ones for fulltone etc?

Any ideas.

Thanks

That company is Diago (http://www.diago.co.uk/) and here's the product you're on about:

£50 for the basic unit and then you can buy all manner of extensions and converters to suit. I use one and it's brilliant, absolutely brilliant.

I have 1 of the Diago Powerstations too, and 'technically' it can only power 9v or 18v (with 1 of their adaptors) pedals.

It's a great PSU though, noise free and very efficient :)

Some pedals, eg 15V ones are usable with 18V PSUs I think for convenience

this unit has 10 DC outs, every single one of'em is adjustable 1.2~18V DC (100~200mA). And it also has 2 AC outs, one  9V (500mA) and one 12V (500mA).  :roll:

yeah, this price is just for 1 (damn) power supply unit.
(of course, incl. cables and manuals u know those candys...)
it's a korean stuff, some tone-guru or freak at the country made it.
btw, it's freakin' heavy and stronger than a tank.
size : 21 x 12.5 x 7.8 Cm(8.3x4.9x3 inch)
weight : 1.9 Kg ( 4.2 lbs.) 4.2lbs .....for one power supply, damn.
cuz it has Toroidal power transformer(u know what this is, don't u?) inside
and its body is made with 5mm(yes, i said 5mm not 0.5mm) aluminum.
 
carzy. huh?  :?
