I've just bought a strymon timeline, and I thinks its time to upgrade my 1spot to something a little better, as I've started getting ground hum
Can anyone suggest a power supply which will deliver 300ma for the timeline, and able to power 5+ other pedals
Cheers!!

Voodoo lab pedal power 2plus. You could power up to 8 pedals normally. But you would need a special cable from voodoo lab ( current doubling cable). It uses 2 of the outputs and keeps it at 9 volts but using outputs 5 and 6, you get 500 mA of current which is plenty for the strymon. I use this same setup for my line6 g50 wireless receiver ( it also needs 300 mA of current).

Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2+
This is where it's at.

Cioks DC8, same cost as the PP2+, but gives you 2 300mA taps as opposed to the PP2+ giving you 2-250mA taps.
Also, it has a switchable voltage selector, unlike VL.

probably gonna go with the DC10, if I can find a good deal on it, shame CiOKS haven't got any UK distributors
I'll email them for a quote

I read somewhere that the PP2+ supplies 500ma across outputs 5&6
So I could power the timeline from 5 or 6, just as long as whatever was plugged into the other output didn't use much power
Anyone know if thats true?

Check out the ISO-5. It may play better with the Timeline.

The ISO-5 is a better PSU to power the Timeline because of the 300mA tap rather than the 250mA taps on the PP2+.
Goldspanner, you could achieve 500mA if you used a current doubler to tie taps 5 & 6 together. But I wouldn't suggest daisy chaining along w the Timeline if you were using a current doubler on taps 5 & 6, it may interfere w/ the timeline since it is digital and clock based.
