Power Supply for RP150?

Hi everyone,

I recently purchased a used RP150 with a burnt out pwoer supply.

It is Sunday now, so all music stores are closed, but I saw somewhere that Digitech pedals such as my RP150, can be used with either 9~12V power supplys that gives out AC power that supports up to 1.3A. Is this true for my RP150? I can't find any information about it. Thanks!

P.S. I tried the 12V and it worked, but I'm not sure if this will damage the unit in long term?

I got this off the other forum and not sure if it is true:
\"I just wanted to mention that the RP300 will run on any AC supply up to about 12V without heat-sinking the 5-v regulator inside the unit, and you can use DC levels from 8V up to about 14V as long as the center is positive.\"

  • Match the AC/DC with the power supply, whatever RP150 officially requires. You'll need at least 1.3 amperes, but more is fine. I don't know about voltage in technical terms, but in my experience 12v to a 9v does not cause damage for years. Maybe not at all; I don't have the gift of immortality to find out, and neither does my equipment.
