Can I use 300 ma?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hiya fellas,

I have an ac power adapter that is 9v DC but is at 300 ma verses the 250 ma norm. The tip and case match the pedal, but wanted to check if a 50 ma difference could/would harm the pedal during use.

Thanks guys!

You won't damage your pedal. The pedal will only take as much current as it needs.

When you start to give it too much voltage on the other hand... that can be an issue .

But in your case, worry not! It'll be fine
