Current Doubler Adapter Cable
More Current for Higher-Demand Pedals
The T-Rex Current Doubler Adapter allows two compatible isolated power-supply outputs to work together, providing additional available current for pedals that require more than a single output can supply.
The voltage remains the same while the available current from the two outputs is combined.
Available in two lengths: 8" and 26.5".
How It Works
Connect the two male plugs to two isolated outputs set to the same voltage, then connect your pedal’s normal power cable to the female connector.
For example:
Two compatible 12V / 300mA isolated outputs can provide up to approximately 12V / 600mA when used together.
This makes the Current Doubler particularly useful for higher-current digital pedals, multi-effects units, and other devices that require more current than a single power output can provide.
Important: This Does Not Double Voltage
The Current Doubler combines available current, not voltage.
Both power-supply outputs should:
- Be isolated from one another
- Be set to the same voltage
- Provide the correct AC/DC type for the pedal
- Be used with the correct polarity
If your pedal requires a higher voltage, use the appropriate voltage-doubling solution instead.
Connections
- Input: 2 × 2.1 mm barrel plugs
- Output: 1 × 2.1 mm female connector
- Available Lengths: 26.5 in and 8 in
Power Budget
Think of current as part of your pedalboard’s available power budget.
If a pedal needs 500mA but one isolated output can provide only 300mA, combining two compatible 300mA outputs can provide sufficient available current while maintaining the required voltage.
Always confirm:
Voltage
AC or DC
Polarity
Required current
before connecting your pedal.

Give Your Pedal the Current It Needs
When the voltage is right but one power output cannot provide enough current, the T-Rex Current Doubler Adapter gives you a simple way to combine two compatible isolated outputs.
Same voltage. More available current.
