digitech xp-100 whammy/wah power

[The Ethanator]

i found one of these nearby on craigslist for cheap (it, a boss bf-3 and ph-3 all for $150), and im thinking of jumping on the deal. one question though: it says in the manual only to use the included power supply, which is a 9-volt power supply. i know that there are some pedals that arent too friendly with other power supplies, but can i use the xp-100 with my 1-spot power supply?

I've tried to do that with mine when I forgot his power supply before a rehearsal and it just didn't work

[Vic Winters]

No. The XP-100 requires AC, a 1Spot puts out DC. Also the barrels are different sizes.

[GearHeadBassMan]

therefor, even though im not OP, just curious, any AC power supply with a 9v rated output will work?

[Vic Winters]

No. You have to make sure you have the correct barrel size, polarity and have enough amperage to sufficiently power it. The power supply is 1300mA. For reference, a standard Boss power supply is only 200mA.
