Introduction
To reduce or eliminate the need to change batteries, the Donner 9 Volt Adapter works with any device needing tip negative 9V. Additional 9V tip negative effects pedals can be powered by it as well. A guitar pedal power supply adapter is a device that provides power to guitar pedals. It converts AC power from a wall outlet into the DC power needed by pedals. A guitar pedal board typically requires multiple power sources, so a power supply adapter allows you to power multiple pedals with a single source. It is an essential piece of gear for guitar players who use multiple pedals in their setup.
Batteries are not required
A performance can be ruined by a pedalboard with a dead battery. By
directly powering the pedal, you can avoid the hassles associated with a dead
pedal.
Not Limited to Pedals
The 9 Volt adapter can be used to power electronics made by other
manufacturers in addition to pedals. Negative-tipped keyboards can also be
powered using the Donner adaptor.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many pedals can the Donner power?
The Donner power supply can power up to five pedals. However, if you are powering more than one pedal with the same adapter, you will need to use a splitter.
Can I use a splitter with the Donner?
Yes, you can use a splitter with the Donner power supply. However, if you are powering more than one pedal with the same adapter, you will need to use a splitter.
Can I plug in my guitar?
Yes, you can plug your guitar into an amp using the Daisy Chain cable and then plug that into your amplifier.
Will a TC electronic flashback x4 be powered by this supply? (Draw 300 mA)
The maximum current it can handle is 1000mA. It works excellently to power a TC Flashback x4 and a TC Vortex.
How much cord remains before the daisy chain begins?
I just got it, and the distance between the plug and the socket where the five 9-volt adapters are plugged in is just 44 inches. Unfortunately, I placed my order on on those responses, so I suppose it has altered since those earlier replies characterized it as 72″.
Can you only use one adaptor and not all five?
You may only use one, yes. The chain really detaches, revealing a one-pedal adaptor.
Can you only use one adaptor and not all five?
You may only use one, yes. The chain really detaches, revealing a one-pedal adaptor.
Does it have boss pedal power?
The Boss pedal very certainly accepts a 9 volt battery. Is there a 1A negative tip on the Boss pedal? (This would be the plug’s female socket)
Is it compatible with the Digitech Jam Man Solo XT?
I’m confident that it will function for that because I used it with my Digitech Screamin’ Blues. similar adapter ought to be used.
With the appropriate plug adaptor, can this power supply be used in Europe where the voltage is 220?
I would advise against it because you might need the adapter and mine didn’t have it when I bought it.
Does anyone know if this will operate without making a noise with a Boss RC 1 loop station?
On my boss loop station, where this power supply is installed, it is entirely silent. A mooer yellow comp. with no line noise is one of the other pedals I own. It has a well-regulated power supply, in my opinion.
