Mission Engineering 529M Ultra-Compact USB Guitar Effects Pedalboard Power Converter
Manufacturer's Description
The 529M V2 converts an external USB-PD battery pack or charger into a single high current output with five selectable voltages for powering effects pedals and similar audio and small electronics equipment. The 529M V2 can be used with a daisy chain cable to provide a 9V supply to large numbers of analog effects pedals. It can also be used as a single output power supply for high current devices or devices that require different voltages.
The 529M V2 should be connected to a USB power source such as battery pack or wall charger with a USB-C cable. The power source should support USB Power Delivery (PD). The available output voltages and maximum output power of the 529M V2 will depend on the power source. For example, if you use a USB- PD battery that supports 9V at 3A and 12V at 2A, then this is what will be available at the 529M V2's output. The 529M V2 supports USB-PD up to 20V at 3A (60W). Make sure that the USB-C cable that you use is rated for at least 60W.
The output of the 529M V2 is a 2.5mm DC connector with center pin NEGATIVE. Connect the output to your effects pedal(s) using a standard 2.5mm effects pedal power cable. Suitable adapters may be used to convert to center pin positive when required. Adapters are available from missionengineering.com and most pro-audio stores.
The 529M V2 can be used with a daisy chain cable to provide a stable 9V to large numbers of analog effects pedals from a single battery or USB wall charger. It can also be used as a single output power supply for high current devices such as the Line 6 HX series.
The output voltage can be changed using a small switch to 6V, 9V, 12V, 15V or 18V, allowing the 529M V2 to be used to power almost any effects pedal and similar devices that require different voltages.
