XP5-PS5 Isolated OutputsThe Ultimate Compact Isolated Power SupplyLinks To Additional Truetone Expansion Boxes9Vdc 500mA Per OutputIncludes DC Cables For Your PedalsPowered By CS11 Or The Included Adapter1 SPOT PRO: The Original Studio-Grade Power For Your PedalsXP5-PSThe XP5-PS is a package containing the 1 Spot Pro XP5, along with a 12Vdc 2.5A adapter which allows you to power the XP5 without having a CS11. The adapter comes with an array of international plugs, so you can take it with your pedalboard anywhere in the world. Some musicians may even choose to get one of these, plus another XP5, to distribute their power around the pedalboard and have the dual XP5’s acting as two pedal risers.The 1 SPOT Pro Story“A lot of people over the years had told us that we should make a power brick. Even some of my own staff urged me to do it, but I didn’t want to for two reasons. First, I knew the 1 SPOT could power just about every pedal out there, so I didn’t see the need. Second, I didn’t want to make just another knock-off of someone else’s power brick. If we were going to make one, we were going to do it our way and have features that nobody else could offer. As pedal designs changed and it became more common for digital pedals to require isolation and for others to need something other than 9Vdc, I finally saw a reason for us to design a power brick.”“It took 3 years and lots of experimentation, but we were finally able to design a 1 SPOT Pro, using our own proprietary technology to give musicians all the features they need for today’s pedalboards. The original 1 SPOT still works great for most musicians, but for those who need more power and versatility, the 1 SPOT Pro fills the need perfectly.” - Bob Weil (Founder & President - Truetone)1 SPOT TechnologyInside look at the 1 SPOT Pro CS111 SPOT Technology… what does that mean and why should I care? Technically, it’s switching power supply technology, which is very different than what anyone has ever put inside a power brick. Normally, you would find just a big transformer and a handful of small electronic components inside a power brick… old tech that hasn’t changed in decades and has a lot of limitations. We took the same triple filtered switching power supply technology found in our famous 1 SPOT and scaled it up to make the 1 SPOT Pro models. With much more space to work with, we were able to completely eliminate noise, provide total electrical isolation between outputs, create multiple voltages, and still give you the ability to use it anywhere in the world.A major benefit of using a switching power supply is that it can handle far more current (power being pulled out of it) than any transformer-based power supply. Although we had to put power rating labels on each output to satisfy certification agencies (yes, we actually certified these, unlike many companies), the outputs can generally handle far more than the label shows. For example, you can connect a 300mA pedal to a 200mA output, without causing any problems. With a transformer-based power supply, you can’t get away with that. The important thing is to not exceed the total of all the labels. With a CS7 (for example), the output labels add up to 1900mA total. That means the total current draw of all your pedals should be less than 1900mA.Dimensions88 x 88 x 30mm (3.46 x 3.46 x 1.18”); 336 grams (0.74 lbs.) - weight and dimensions of XP5 only, not including cables or packaging.
