Experience With Boss Daisy Chain Power Cable?

Sign in to disble this ad
Has anyone used a Boss pedal tuner (I have the TU-2) with the optional "Daisy Chain Power Cable" that allows you to power several other pedals?

I regularly use my Boss Tuner, a Tech 21 Sansamp and a Boss Chorus pedal, and sometimes a Tech 21 compressor. The same adapter end fits each pedal.

I've been running everything using separate AC adapters, but I'm thinking of trying the daisy chain power cable Boss offers.

Has anyone had any experience with this, either good or bad?

I like the idea of having only 1 electrical adapter, but I don't want risk harming the pedals (if any harm can indeed come from using the daily chain adapter).

It wont harm them. You can probably get away with it as long as it has enough juice for all the pedals. See how many mha's each pedal takes up then add them and see if the power adapter can handle that many.

I daisy chain my guitar pedals with the 1 spot. It has a higher power output so it will power them. It's only an Ibanez tuner and a Boss DS-1, but it works great.

I've been running one for almost two years and no complaints. I recently picked up a noise suppressor (it also has a daisy chain input to power other pedals) and I've been using that input instead of the tuner, (all pedals I'm powering with it are BOSS) it's still all good though!
