Pedal Power Draw Table
While sorting out my power supply I felt the need to test the power consumption of each pedal both while enabled & disabled. I used a bench top power supply (GW Instek PSP-405) to accurately measure the power consumption for all the pedal below. I've then added a +10% worst case to hopefully cover part variation / measurement error, this value should give your PSU a little head room.
While wiring up my pedal board I also wanted to consider if the pedal is analog, digital or a combination of both.
Power disabled means pedal effect off & power enabled means pedal effect enabled. It’s interesting to see how much power pedals use while 'off'.
