Looks like caline. That is decent.

you should buy it,
great PS
I have the caline one, and it works very well, no noise issues at all
I haven't looked inside to prove it's isolated, but compared to a 1spot it is much quieter so something they are doing is better

1200mA in total? That's less than a VS one-spot
A couple digital delays in your chain and you'll run out of juice pretty fast. Oth though, if you've got room enough underneath your board for two, you'd be set for way less than what a voodoo lab PP would cost ya.

Personally, I run a BBE Supa Charger and just bought a used T. Rex Fuel Tank Jr. For less than the new price of a voodoo labs power supply, I have 13 ports under my board, and 2 of them are for high MA draw stuff.

They are quite good. But they aren't isolated as it says in the advertising. I have a couple of Joyo branded and a couple of Caline. I can't fault them.

The BBE is less than $100 and is fully isolated.

bringing this thread back from the dead to say that my 30 dollar chinese andoer/mosky/caline/joyo brick bit the dust within two weeks. was about to test the vintage time machine @ 12v and as soon as i plugged into the port with nothing on the other end, it died and would not turn back on. bout to invest in that tried and true, full analog, overbuilt, american brick - the voodoo labs iso 5. the power supplies on these mini joyos are definitely garbage. it was good before it died tho, lil bit cleaner than the old daisy chain soundwise.

I have the Caline one, cheap, has worked ok, but is definitely not isolated and is noisy.

Sucks. I picked one up on Amazon initial testing revealed avery quiet power supply. Hopefully it'll hold up.

Amazon was ultra quick about the return and refund, so no big whoop. I just wouldn't trust hooking up to another one, personally.

Still recommending this.
