24 volt power supplies for volume pedals.......

Mon Apr 01, 2019 10:10 am

Having screwed up at least two of them as the power lead finds its way under the leg of the pack-a-seat I now carry at least one or two spares.
If anyone is interested I can send you one for 28 quid inc. postage

Hi John
I also got fed up with either chopping through the thin cable, or the cable failing where it leaves the adapter.
So I bought a little box from Maplins, fitted the Hilton adapter in it, cut in a normal euro mains socket (always have a spare one of those in someones kit at a gig) then cut in a military type socket both into the box and the pedal, therefore leaving me able to use a good thick reinforced power lead.
Just for good measure I added a neon bulb just so I could look down and check it was on.

Nice one Dave looks like a proper job :D but for me a spare in the seat takes up a tiny bit of room and I am covered if my P/s goes down. If anyone wants to copy Dave's example, I may have a couple with damaged leads that would serve as I assume you would cut the lead anyway to make the connections?

Hi john
I’d be interested in one of your damaged ones. No hurry so you could perhaps include it in my next string order? I like the robust box idea as the PSU is an accident waiting to happen.
Cheers
Calum
