Very simple power supply. All outputs are very clearly marked and includes all the cables you will ever need.

The unit is very quiet and runs cool even after hours of use. It makes all my pedals sound great. I am using it in my pedal board to power a Fulltone Fulldrive II, Maxon AD-90 Delay, MXR Micro Amp and a Boss TU-2 Tuner.

I have been using it for about 3 months now and it has not failed yet. It is built like a tank and is much smaller than the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power. It is probably smaller because it uses a wall wart to power it. I would have rather them put the transformer inside the box and use a more substantial power cord. I put a power strip in my pedalboard and ran the cord to the power strip.

Overall I would say it is the right power supply for my needs. The power cord thing really dosn't bother me because it goes to my power strip. It is very small and dosn't take up a lot of space on my board. I would buy this power supply again and probably will buy another as a backup. The best thing is that I will never have to buy or change another battery. Visit my band's website at: www.theurge2rock.com

I run a Boss Noise supressor, two Ibanez Tubescreamers, a Boss GE-2 EQ, an Ibanez Delay/Echo and a DOD chorus and they all sound perfect and completely silent with this unit. No complaints.

Ive used this unit for over a year under pretty hard circumstances. I play in a worship band at church every Sunday, and it stays powered up for about 4 hours continually as well as eight hours of band practices during the week. Never had a single problem with it.

This thing is great. Has probably paid for itself already in money saved on 9v batteries that had a tendency to die right in the middle of a set. Would definitely replace it if it were lost or stolen. It has become a necessity for me.

I don't have anything bad to say about this pedal. It's compact, like the mxr pedals. It's not noisy. It powers everything that I run except the whammy4.
The price was the deciding factor. Even though I probably overpaid for mine(local music store) It was still cheaper than the voodoo labs pedal power.

This is the upgraded unit of the Juice Box. It doesn't have any of the problems associated with previous model. This box couldn't get any simpler. Plug in your pedals and then plug it into the wall. It powers up to 10 pedals in either 18 or 9 volts. The way the cords and the sockets are you can't accidently mix voltages too easily. No switches, just plug and play. It does come with directions but they are sort of a joke because it's just such a simple thing to use. Imagine if toilet paper cam with directions.

All my pedals sound as good or better with this box. I was so surprised. I was expecting noise. After hearing all the nightmare stories with the Juice Box I was thinking I would have to send this thing back. Everytime you play it's like playing with new batteries. The sound output is stronger and fuller. It came well supplied with cables for all of my applications. 1-18 volt wall wart to power the thing, The brick itself, 3-1 volt cords, 7-9 volt cords with barrel ends, and 2-9 volt cords with mini-phone ends (had to use this one for my Frantone Peachfuzz). Here's my pedalboard layout. American Deluxe Strat into a MXR phase 100 > Ibanez Turbo Tubscreamer > Dunlop 535Q wha wha (18 volt) > Big Muff (not powered by DC Brick) > Frantone Peachfuzz > Danelectro Dan-Echo > old 50 watt crate tube amp or custom Fender Hot Rod DeVille. Then sound is as good as the pedals can possibly sound. I have modified some of the pedals to be quieter suc as the MRX phaser. I highly recomend this power supply.

It's built like an MXR and its heavy for its diminuitive size. I got it for a better gig set up. It really helps on stage. And It also protects against spikes and surges. The unit supplies constant and regulated power. It can provide up to 1000 milliamps which is plenty for pedals. After using this unit regularly it has never done anything other than what it's supposed to do. It doesn't even heat up much at all. I gave it a 9 because the bottom isn't very grippy and it can slide around. That's not anthing to really worry about unless you have a gig on a boat.

This is the best way to get rid of batteries and wallwarts. I like it better than the VooDoo Lab model too. But, the bad thing is that it's not very popular and it took almost three months to get because i had to special order it. My other complaint is that it's not brick red. The box is black. The previous Juice Box model was a nice juicy orange. When I saw the prototype for the DC Brick it was red. So I was a little disappointed about that appearence. Oh Well! It's still awesome. I hated wasting batteries.
