The family that's BATTERY-ONLY is... never lonely?

[MechaGodzilla]

What is this? The past?

Nothing with an adapter jack! Show us yer stomps that you only get to hear at 9-ish volts. Sometimes nearly 10, sometimes as low as 7 maybe?

Good thread! (My photobucket's still broken though.)

No such family photo available...of my current stash:

Dan Armstrong Green Ringer
Chuck Collins HP-1
Skinpimp Pro MK II OC81d
Bartolini Tube-It v1
Gagan 'film inductor' wah
ZVEX LFLJ...but I use a battery snap dc adaptor for it

[MechaGodzilla]

Oh yeah, my vox wah is battery only but it's at the rehearsal room.

Photobucket performed seppuku, they are not coming back.

I've only got two battery only devices, so they are almost lonely.



Late first generation PNP.



Electronic Sounds wah.

None of these are in my personal collection, but several 1970s pedals actually required (2) 9-volts. Excluded is the FP-777, which actually could be powered externally.

They keep sending me e-mails. Thinking about redirecting 'em to my SPAM folder.

A while back I followed a link to their page to look at an image, since they don't do 3rd party hosting unless you pay out the nose AND I STILL GOT THE FUCKING GO TO PHOTOBUCKET TO SEE THIS message. I use imgur now, no complaints.

Dan Armstrong Green Ringer

You have an original one?

[rustywire]

Yep. Guts are now in a pedal, the orig plug-in enclosure is in storage.

[The Eristic]

My OG Robotalk requires 2, and it's annoying as hell. Both of my NVN pedals and both of my Monsterpiece fuzzes from way back when he started are battery only, too.

[coupleonapkins]

Not mine but a Rosac Distortion Blender (this one looks wired up but w/e ) or the gold brickin' Nu Fuzz tambien



But I usually keep batteries in my Zvex pedals because it reminds me of simpler times tho (put it in your pocket)



edit: another DB from the ILF archives:

Rechargible 9volts work and sound great in pedals just so you guys know...

[rustywire]

The battery you can [almost] see in the GR is a rechargeable
Also in the wah & HP
+others
