the OC-2 draws … 4 ma
Some of those are beautiful that way. The Big Muff - 5-7mA, depending on which muff.
yeah and it’s pretty easy to guess if a pedal draws a lot of current or not, if you have the schematics. most overdrive with a dual op-amp will draw less than 20 mA. the Big Muff draws way less because, if I remember, it only uses discrete transistors.
Hah I was just looking at it (stink foot) a few hours ago, it’s one of my current pet peeves that tc electronic lists pretty much all their pedals as being 100 mA. Inluding ones I bet are only like 12 mA, really the wiretap?
Darkglass vintage 30 mA
EHX 2020 Tuner 20 mA
Hotone wally plus Looper 40 mA
JPTR Jive mini 100 mA
Zoom ms-60b 140 mA
Source Audio EQ2 165 mA
Source Audio Spectrum 165 mA
Singular beat buddy 300 mA
Mooer radar 12v 300 mA
Radial Bassbone 15v 400 mA rvrs polarity
And a buncha tc pedals around 100 mA
I just ordered a new PSU : Harley Benton Power Plant JR , an exact copy of the T-Rex Fuel Tank JR. 5 x 9v DC @ 120 ma , full galvanic isolation.
it’s tiny!
that’s what I want ! I’m finally decided (for now ) to build a very small and minimal pedalboard with only 3 pedals.
by the way Harley Benton makes even smaller switching PSUs but I wanted the old school galvanic isolation. it’s better in theory, not sure it makes a difference in the real world.
Shipping would be terrible to here but it’s great to see they are making such good stuff for Thomann.
Ooh in other news, I wrote Musikdings and they will ship the Schalltechnik stuff to me for 28 Euros. Which isn’t so bad because they will also knock off the VAT. Tempting.
Did you post anywhere about this one, I don’t recall you getting it. Would like to see what it is all about. I was looking at some EBS pedals recently, couple really well priced ones on Offer Up and REverb (same seller), so would like to know how you like it.
Basically a rabbit hole I am going down, doing a little shootout of solid state vs tubes.
yeah that’s a pretty good price !
All in all not bad for EU->Japan shipping yeah.
I received my Harley Benton Power Plant JR PSU : it’s tiny, well made, and it brings absolutly no unwanted noise. pure silence.
also it came with a lot of cables of different lengths, a daisy chain cable and a special Y cable to wire two outputs in series for a 18v output.
Sounds sweet.
Any Pics?
I’ve seen it on their site, I was thinking maybe you had some pic’s of it in action.
it’s just a PSU, I can make a picture but I’m not sure it would add anything
… 'might add a ON/OFF switch
