Sign in to disble this ad
I know it's 9v but I hear EHX pedals are notorious for having awkward pedal supplies.
Would this pedal be okay with a power supply such as a one spot? |

In that case, what you need is a 1 Spot Model C35 3.5 millimeter converter cable. You can get them for under $2.50 on eBay. I buy my power cables from this guy (here's a link to a current a auction for the adapter you probably need): PowerHouse Musical Supply
He has exceptional customer service. Might as well buy a couple to save on shipping in case you get another EXH pedal down the road.

I made this assumption because the Small Clone and the Small Stone both use the sample type of enclosure.

I spoke thinking about the Nano small stone, which i own, but maybe the regular version has different power requirements.
Sorry for correcting you without being sure. |

I just found this on the EHX page, this would be the 3.55mm plugs in the pack I posted earlier? |

Also, the kit you linked to includes the 8-connector cable which is a better value than the 5-connector cable from 1 Spot. I had the 5, then quickly ran out of room with it as my pedalboard started to grow.
What you're getting is a decent starter pack (although you are paying a nominal amount for some connectors you may never use, like the Line 6 connector or the 9-volt battery connector).
