Power supply qns

Ive got a reissue Fulltone 70 and an Analogman Astrotone coming soon, i was wondering if i could daisy chain these 2 pedals along with a Tim since its gonna be tight on my incoming pt mini with my dmm on board. Talking about the dmm, can a bbe supacharger power a dmm?

All three (Astrotone, '70 and Tim) are center negative with regular negative ground, so they should *in theory* work just fine daisy-chained. However, just getting them powered up is one thing - making them work quietly is another...

The DMM (24 volts DC) can be powered from two outputs set to 12 volts (1 and 2, for instance), using this cable. It connects the two outputs in series (adding their voltages together for 24vDC) and reverses the polarity, ending up with a center positive 2.5mm plug at the pedal end.

You could daisy chain them...but you'll likely run into a lot of noise. Fuzz pedals already don't like being powered with anything other than a battery...let alone a daisy chained power source. Is there any other low current pedal on your board that you could daisy chain?

And yes, you can power a DMM with a BBE but you'll need a series wired Y cable to double the voltage draw of two outlets, giving you the 24v needed to power it.

***edit: stinkfoot beat me to it. what he said.
