Can the Onespot do 18V?

Or do you need isolated grounds to use a voltage doubler? I have a feeling that if it could be done, Visual Sound would sell a Y-cable, but I would like to confirm that before I start looking at a Fuel Tank jr. or a Supacharger.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

No, it cannot combine 9v ports. To the best of my knowledge. The only pedals that can do that (To the best of my knowledge) is units with Isolated outlets.

You could pop a Godlyke Power Pump on one of the outputs to bump it up from 9v to 18v.

What about a Y-cable between two separate 1spots?

Won't work- the outputs aren't isolated.

Not a bad idea, but godlyke stuff is practically impossible to get here. It might end up costing me like 60 euros, in which case I might as well spend 100 and get the Fuel Tank Junior.

Also note that this thread is practically your fault (GAS-inducing Blowtorch videos on youtube).

You can't combine 2 plugs from the same 1-Spot to get 18v but I reckon it would work from 2 separate 1-Spots, although it's not as good a solution as the Godlyke Power Pump, or the Diago 18v Adaptor which does pretty much the same thing.

Here's a link to the Diago 18v adaptor:

I'm fighting a different issue. I want to put a Pandora PX4d on my pedaltrain mini and they run on a looney 4.5v and I don't really want to use another adapter along with my 9v OneSpot. Easier I guess just to keep pumping 3 AA's into it when needed.

You're welcome Best thing would be to either get a Fuel Tank or buy the Power Pump from a US seller at regular price and just pay a few bucks extra for shipping, unless customs is really expensive there.
