Anyone have this setup? Can the Fuel tank be mounted under the Pedal Tain board without mods? Anyone?

I know of at least one guy on HC who has a pedaltrain (his is the Jr though) with a fuel tank power supply underneath and it fits without any special modifications.

Set a boost or OD pedal on top of a Fuel Tank and crank it up. If you hear any buzz or hum when moving the pedal close or away, don't mount it underneath. Some supplies can't be run real close without interferance. I've never used the Fuel Tank, so I don't know..

A Fuel Tank will go underneath on a PTJR or PT2. You may need to shim the side with the power out puts up a bit in order to make a clean stress free connection with your power cables.

The only trouble is getting it to stay there in a neat manner. I tried velcro and zip ties and the thing would still sag and it looked terrible, so I gave up and just stuck it back on top of the PT2. I'm planning on doing a Pumaboard soon here anyway, so for now it does not bother me too much.

Best of luck.

Using Dual-lock instead of velcro should take care of that.

Do you know if the fuel tank can power line 6 pedals like the DL4 and MM4?

you can try shimming it up underneath there, but be warned, that you must use right angle power plugs, or you might cause some unneeded stress on the straight angle plugs.

Where can you get right angled power plugs?

Iiinteresting.... I might want to pick this up instead of the PP2 because I have the DL4, MM4 and FM4 and pp2 can only power 2 line 6 pedals if I'm not mistaken.

I have my Fuel Tank & PP2+ under my PedalTrain Pro board. No problems with it. I would not advise using the Fuel Take with any of the Line6 4series pedals. Because it has 8 9volt outputs with a total of 500mA. If you are using all of those you run the chance of not giving your pedals enough power. I was told by the T-Rex guys that they would not suggest using 4series Line6 pedals with the Fuel Tank

Ok, thank you for the heads up!
