Telonics FP-100 Super Pro Pedal Current Draw

Post by Matthew Walton »

Hi all, can anyone tell me the current draw of the new Telonics volume pedal? I'm wondering if I can power it from the supply on my pedal board.

I also noticed it now has a range of voltages it will work with (I think 9V-24V, but I'll have to double check later). Does this affect the pedal's headroom, or does it boost the internal voltage regardless of input voltage?

Thanks!

They require a 24V adapter, and I would not chance a different voltage.

Gary, that must be the older model. The one I just got is pretty clearly marked 9V-24V, and I guess polarity-indifferent. I just can't find the current draw in any documentation.

Matthew I have a new Telonics pedal.

Once I got to a gig and realized I forgot the power.

I tried one of the plugs (9v) in my daisy chain that I use for all the other effects and it worked just fine, I did not notice any difference.
