1 SPOT Slim 9V DC Adapter Review

It is cheaper and it is quieter.

Use a Pedaltrain Nano to host 5 mini pedals. Initially purchased and used another product that conveniently mounted under the board to power my pedals. The more that I used the product: the more noise I noticed. At some point, decided to upgrade. The Truetone 1Spot seemed too good to be true. Very skeptically, I took the plunge and I could not be happier. It is cheaper and… read more it is quieter. Thanks Truetone and Sweetwater! Hope this helps! Cheers!

Problem Solved

My pedal collection exploded almost overnight from 4 pedals to 8. The daisy chain I was using, powered by a Boss PSA, was underpowered already and lacking outlets. I decided to give the 1 SPOT adapter and 8-plug daisy chain a try. One try. If this thing had made even the slightest noise beyond what I would normally hear, I was going to chuck it in a drawer and get an expensive isolated… read more Power brick. I don't mess around with sound quality. I tested it by running all 8 pedals at once (something I never do when actually playing). The 1 SPOT passed the test with flying colors. With 1700ma of power available, there is more than enough juice to run my rig. All pedals are functioning beautifully with no noise. Also, the right angle plugs mean I don't have to disconnect the chain before putting the board in its' travel case, I can leave everything hooked up just like it is. Before you buy the "brick" give this a try. It does a great job at a fraction of the price. I can't guarantee it will work with all pedals, but it worked for mine. To see the pedals I use and to see how neatly it tidies up the board, check out the pic below.

Ho hum..... so boring

Ho Hum, no hum. This humbug eats all your hum. Nothing exciting, you just don't hear any electricity!!!! What a great device!! Not the 1st one I've bought. All I hear playing acoustic amplified is acoustic as intended!!!! Does the same for my electric rig. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

They work

Gear snobs hate them, but they work. If you're powering a handful of BOSS or equivalent type pedals this will suite you just fine at a reasonable price. I use mine with a daisy chain for BOSS, Friedman & Wampler pedals without any noise or issues at all.

Exactly what I was hoping for, after other daisy chain disappointments

This was my third try at a daisy-chain-style pedal power supply. After watching a 1-Spot video from the creator of 1-Spot, I decided to give this daisy-chain-style a chance and if it didn't work, I would try something more expensive. I am so glad I did. After I hooked it up, and turned my amp on and plugged my guitar in, I couldn't heard anything but what I would normally hear when… read more the amp and guitar are turned on. I'm a weekend player so I was so glad this inexpensive solution has worked. Just for information, I currently only have three pedals and they are a DD-3 Delay, CS-3 Comp, and an Ibanez TS9. I am confident I could add more. I would highly recommend watching his video as well. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone that is looking for a quiet way to run multiple pedals from one power source. In addition, my power source is not dedicated, I have lights running on it as well as a power strip that I was plugged into.
