Hermida Nu-valve, question!

Post by eliasklingen »

Hello guys!
I just ordered the Nu-valve from Hermida Audio, http://www.vendio.com/stores/HermidaAud ... id=2384687
And I just noticed this;

"Power supply: DC adapter only (USA compatible adapter included); no support for 9V battery use
International customers must purchase a 9V DC 200mA and center-negative plug adapter compatible with local voltage at your nearest music store".

Well, I live in Sweden, and my T-rex fueltank jr will only support me with 120ma for each output. What would you suggest? A 1 spot?

Thanks!

If you have the outputs to spare, just combine two to get 240mA with a fancy doubler cable, T-Rex sells them for € 7,- which is cheaper than the OneSpot.

Yea I have, that sounds pretty good. But it's 240 instead of 200, that won't hurt it? Sorry, I'm no pro :p

No, that won't hurt it. It just means your pedal gets more juice than it drinks, which doesn't do anything. As far as mA goes, you only have to make sure a pedal gets enough, if it doesn't it simply won't function. It's the Voltage that you have to worry about it. Giving a pedal more than it's rated for can fry parts.
