surfergirl Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 We have accumulated some money and are considering a battery operated power supply. I have a really good heavy duty power strip, with 10 inputs. I'm thinking a 3 input power supply, 2 for amps and 1 for pedals using my power strip. 2 Quote Jennifer S.

Winston Psmith Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 @surfergirl- My bandmate recently picked up a Jackery brand battery box for outdoor sets, and it worked very well for a show early in June. I'll check with her later today, see what model it was. 4 Quote "Monsters are real, and Ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win."

I already have 2 One Spots and enough cables to run our effects. Trying to get away from batteries. Between 16 AA and 8 to 10 9V rechargeable plus chargers, I think it may be economical to go this route. 2 Quote Jennifer S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryz Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 @surfergirl, How long will the power supply last running both amps and the pedals before you need to re-charge? 1, 2, or 3 hours maybe? Looks like a cool rig idea, along with a hand truck to get you to your busking site...😎👍 2 Quote Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the amp they claim 2hrs on a charge, I don't think our 7 pedals will change that to much. This morning after I looked at their website I received an ad right on queue. I deleted it, but the ad came right back. Annoyed, I opened it and got the unit for $86., 78% off. That's less than the cost of rechargeable batteries and chargers. 2 1 Quote Jennifer S.
