Best onespot

[Bromosapian]

What would you recommend as the best 9v one spot power supply? I need a stopgap until I can afford a voodoo lab for the pedalboard that I'm building.

[Swift713]

I use a Onespot.

[scubaduba]

I use a Onespot and it works great for me.

[Bromosapian]

I was referring to what variety I should use.

[dehgrinder]

onespot, as in the brand

[Bromosapian]

HURRRRRRRRRRRR.

Im smart.

Do you know if the daisy chain connectors work with standard 9v cables, or if I need to get the actual 1 spot adaptor.

They'll work. I've used a daisy chain with my Voodoo Labs PP2 and it worked fine. Just mind how much current is getting drawn by each pedal and how much is supplied by your adapter.

[Bromosapian]

How do I tell how much is drawn? I know absolutely nothing about powering pedals.

i used a godlyke, no complaints so far. people say its really similar to onespot. but i say it has a cooler name

The Technical Specs for each pedal should be in the owners manuals, or online. You're looking for where it says "Current Draw: 30mA" etc. I believe the 1spot is rated for 1500mA

I am using a 1spot to power my new board with 15 efx including a couple of power hungry units, Zoom B2.1u and Akai UniBass, with no issues or noise.
Have not tried any other the other units.

I also use the Godlyke without any issues.

The answer's in your question. One Spot.

[jmattbassplaya]

I use a 1Spot to power 8 pedals and I have had no issues or additional noise.

[BassInUrFace]

It really does annoy me when people confuse the product 1Spot with wall-warts in general. Anyway, as others have said 1Spot's are great and I sure haven't had any issues.

In the 1spot manual there's a guide to how much current some common pedals draw. I think you can find it in pdf form on their website.
FWIW, the 1spot has always been very reliable for me, and really the price is comparable to generic 9-volt adapters. I think the quality is better than alot of those generic wall-warts.

There should be specs for any given pedal's current draw available at their respective builder's web site if not various retailers' (MF).
