The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus is a universal power supply designed for guitar effects pedals, offering eight isolated outputs to power a variety of battery-operated effects. It provides a clean and consistent power source, eliminating hum and noise by preventing power interference between pedals. The unit includes both standard 9V/12V outputs and higher-current outputs for power-hungry effects, as well as two variable voltage outputs that simulate a low battery effect.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Eight Isolated Outputs:
The core feature is the eight fully isolated outputs, ensuring each pedal receives a clean, independent power supply.
Power Options:
Standard 9V/12V Outputs: Four outputs are switchable between 9V and 12V, suitable for a wide range of pedals.
High-Current Outputs: Two outputs provide 250mA, sufficient for more demanding effects like digital modeling pedals.
SAG Outputs: Two outputs feature a SAG (Sinking Asymptote Voltage Generation) function that simulates the output of a dying battery, creating a unique sonic effect.
Voltage Doubling:
Using optional doubler cables, you can combine outputs to achieve 18V or 24V operation, powering effects that require higher voltages.
Other Features:
Courtesy AC Outlet: A 200-watt AC outlet on the rear is available for powering other devices.
Short Circuit Protection: The unit includes short circuit protection to prevent damage to the power supply or connected pedals.
Toroidal Transformer and Linear Regulation:
The unit employs a toroidal transformer and linear regulation for minimal noise and consistent power delivery, according to Voodoo Lab.
Dimensions and Weight:
The unit is compact, measuring 6" x 3.4" x 1.8" and weighing 2 lbs.
Hand-Built in the USA:
The Pedal Power 2 Plus is hand-built in the United States, according to Voodoo Lab.
The Pedal Power 2 Plus is a popular choice for musicians seeking a reliable and clean power source for their pedalboards, whether it's for a small setup or as part of a larger rig
