The EH ManModerator
On my pedalboard I use a Truetone 1-Spot CS12 power supply. The EH power supply that came with my D9 pedal is 9.6 V 200 mA. The CS12 has 9v 250mA and 9V 500mA. Will I be OK using either of those options with my D9 pedal.
Either would be fine, just make sure the polarity is correct.
The EH ManModeratorI would try a new battery before doing anything else.

The EH ManModeratorIt’s a reissue. Those don’t have manufacturers date codes (not serial numbers) on the back of the pots.
The EH ManModeratorAs long as the power supplies are plugged into the correct AC voltage, the output voltage should be fine.
The EH ManModeratorEither will be fine. The 95000 original power adapter is rated at 9.6VDC-500mA, which is likely slightly higher than actually required.
The EH ManModeratorAre you operating this on power supply or battery?
December 12, 2023 at 1:22 pm in reply to: What kind of foot pedal triggers work for Crash Pad and Super Space Drum? #207052The EH ManModeratorFrom the Crash Pad manual: This 1⁄4” jack is the input for an external trigger. The Crash
Pad triggers on positive going pulses or clock signals ranging from 3V to 15V or
+/- 3V to +/-8V. Nearly all types of gate, clock and trigger signals that fall within
this voltage range will trigger the Crash Pad. Some examples of acceptable
trigger signals include electronic drum trigger pads, an electronic pulse (as
produced by the EHX Clockworks), a clock generator (as produced by the EHX 8
Step), gate signals from synthesizers such as V-Trigger, or sync signals from
drum machines. The input impedance is 2Mohms.Back in the 1980s there was an External Trigger box which was simply a piezo transducer. It worked fine on all the drum units back then. I’d get some piezo discs and try them out. They’re easily mounted to just about anything.
The EH ManModeratorDid you used a stereo (TRS) cable to connect the footswitch to the pedal?
The EH ManModeratorThe EH ManModeratorFor starters, the US supply is only rated for 120v.
The EH ManModeratorI would try to find an adapter that’s already set up for your country’s voltage. The HOG requires a 9VDC/500mA adapter and the model # for the original European adapter is EU9LDC-500.
The EH ManModeratorAre you connecting the footswitch with a standard guitar cable?

The EH ManModeratorI really hate that power supply design. I usually disconnect it and install a small PCB with a variable voltage regulator set for 13v.
The EH ManModeratorThere’s a transistor on the power supply output that probably needs changed as well.
