I'm looking into a battery powered pedalboard supply.
But I have one show-stopper requirement.
I have one pedal that requires 12 volts..and 300ma. My vocal harmonizer...and cannot get rid of this pedal!!
I have found a Joyo unit that has the 12 volt slot..but it's only 100ma rated. Anyone know of a battery powered pedalboard supply with a 12 volt slot and 300ma?

I'm just skipping the whole thing. Yes, it would save me two wall wart power supplies (for the pedals)...but I always end up with a power strip right in front of my mic stand anyway. It's a lot of money and hassle to try to eliminate 2 wall warts when the power strip is right there. I was thinking about positioning myself to head down the road of completely battery powered system..but geez...between battery powered speaker (JBL EON) and pedalboard battery...I'll be approaching $800. I don't street busk anyway, so I'm not going to spend the money on something I may hardly use.
So if someone wants to hire me, but for a place where there's no power, I'm going to have to say no. No electricity, no music.

I think you made the right choice. The first thing that popped into my head was that batteries only live for so long. So, if you went down that route, you would need to understand how long they might last and be ready to replace them. And/or, you would need to pop them on a conditioner. Either way, it's maintenance.

i use a cioks 4 with a cheap battery pack from amazon. get a usb-c cable to connect them. works great and the cioks is very slim so fit shouldn’t be an issue.

At a quick glance, that looks like it would work. But it will require two units....this and a battery.
I suppose I could have this unit on my pedalboard, and choose at each gig, whether to use AC power or a battery.

Yikes!!! I thought GangstaGrass took bluegrass as far as it could go. that's pretty impressive.
