Effects Pedal Power Supplies | What Matters | Palmer PWT05 MK2 Closeup | Choosing a Power Supply If you play guitar and use effects pedals then you will need a multi output multi voltage power supply as a power source. I look at the Palmer PWT05 MK2 9 volts DC PSU with 250 Ma per output and show the main features. I also discuss other power supplies that I have used. This is a 4K upload for a better quality video experience for my viewers. In this video you can learn more about: What does the Palmer power supply cost? Does this power supply support ac and dc voltages? Can this PSU operate on 120 volts and 240 volts? Are there alternative power supplies? What is the current output of the Palmer PWT05 MK2? Is this power supply protected against short circuits? Will this PSU shut down with over voltage? It's important to get things right when you're choosing a power supply for effects pedals and one aspect is the current draw of the pedals you're using. Typically pedals might draw around 20 to 40 Ma per pedal. The Palmer PWT05 MK2 PSU has five 250 Ma 9 volt outputs that are centre pin negative, and are all protected against over current draw and short circuit. So it's likely a great pedal for many guitarists with at least 1.250 Amps of usable current available that could drive many pedals. But I also discuss my experiences with Voodoo Labs power supplies and the 'DC Brick' that was prevalent a few years ago. Needless to say my experiences were actually not very good - but you can learn more about that in the overall discussion. I also had some years back a Sanyo 'eneloop' Pedal Juice rechargeable battery system and show it here although that has ceased production from what I believe. However, you might be surprised to see it operate after three years of being turned off in this video and some are still for sale if you look around. They certainly remain an option and I can recommend the Pedal Juice unreservedly. And always remember that safety is an important aspect when it comes down to mains voltages so cheap Chinese power supplies might not be the best choice and in the worst instances I have seen could be dangerous to use. Gain from my experience if you are less familiar with effects pedal power supplies and heed my comments, after all they are based on my own experience.
