Power Supplies

Novawind

Hey guys, I've now got 6 pedals that run on 9V and one 18V pedal. The 18V has its own power supply so it's not a problem, but I have simply run out of room on my daisy chain for the 9V ones. I'm currently plugging a Boss power supply into a power strip and it works fine, but I have too many pedals to plug everything in at once.

So here's my question: is there any significant advantage to having say a Dunlop Brick or a Voodoo Labs Pedal Power as opposed to simply a Visual Sound 1spot or the like? I need to get a new power supply and I'm just trying to figure out overall what will be best for my rig. Thanks!

I have THREE 1-Spot's and they're amazing and great. I'd go with that. Not expensive-won't take up a lot of space...

+1 on the 1-Spot - Plus you can link their daisy chains together.
That's basically all I use for 9V power.
And one 1-Spot handles up to 1700mA.
I have 16 pedals on my board, 14 of them are run by just two 1-Spots.
Only two of the 16 pedals require a different power supply.

All my pedals except for my wah are powered by the 1-spot

It's a tiny power supply and it works great. Plus it can power 18V pedals.

The Diago thing looks cool but it's still like $95, about the same as a Dunlop Brick. I think I'll just spring for a 1spot and another daisy chain, thanks dudes.
