T-Rex Voltage Doubler Adapter — 8 In
Combine Two Isolated Outputs for Higher Voltage
The T-Rex Voltage Doubler Adapter combines two compatible isolated power-supply outputs to provide a higher-voltage connection for pedals that require more than a single output can provide.
For example, two compatible 9V isolated outputs can be combined to supply 18V to a pedal designed to operate at 18V.
How It Works
Connect the two male barrel plugs to two isolated power-supply outputs, then connect your pedal’s normal power cable to the female connector.
The adapter combines the voltage from the two outputs.
Important: This Doubles Voltage, Not Current
The Voltage Doubler Adapter increases the available voltage by combining two isolated outputs.
It does not function like a Current Doubler.
For example:
9V + 9V = 18V
or
12V + 12V = 24V
The connected pedal must be specifically designed to accept the resulting voltage.
Isolated Outputs Required
Voltage doubling requires two isolated power outputs.
Do not use this adapter with two outputs that share a common electrical ground unless the power-supply manufacturer specifically confirms that configuration is appropriate.
Power Budget
Before connecting your pedal, verify:
Voltage
AC or DC
Polarity
Current requirement
The Voltage Doubler changes the voltage available to the pedal, so it is especially important to confirm the pedal’s allowable input voltage before connecting power.
Never supply a pedal with a higher voltage than the manufacturer specifies.
