diago power station

I've been looking at this for a while but now my biggest concern is will it power a tone hammer at 18v and 20mA??
Also is there a big disadvantage to not having isolated outs??

Thanks
Dan

You can get an 18 v adaptor from diago. Should be fine with the 20mA seeing as it has 3000 on offer.

Not having isolated outputs may result in some hum? I never experienced it when I had a powerstation so take that as you will.

Hope that helps

I power my large board with 23 pedals on it from a single Diago or Shredfreak power supply and get no hum what so ever.

It can do 18v at 20ma its when you get into larger draw pedals that the power pumps don't work.

Diago sells a 18V adaptor on their site, and they are currently working on 12V and 24V adaptors. According to my sources (e-mailing them) they have prototypes sorted, and they should be due out spring next year.

A few pedals can respond badly, and cause hum in other pedals. However, the diago has a money back guarantee, so if it causes noise, they'll give a full refund.
