Telonics Volume pedal power Supply info

Post by Peter de Smet »

I have lost the power supply of my FP 100 A volume pedal. Now I want to buy a new one here in Europe, I know the output should be 24V but how much should be the Ampere of the output.
Does anyone have a photo or the details of the power supply in question.
Thanks in advance for your help. :)

Here are two photos from a pedal I sold here a couple of years ago. And then one photo from the Telonics manual.

Thanks Jon, could the ampere be different in value?
because here in Europe we only have 230V input.

Yes, I thought of that when I was posting. Unfortunately the photo of the international power supply (PS-2) is virtually illegible.

I would say, though, that the key spec is the output of the power supply.

The pedal itself apparently wants to see 24V at a minimum of .25A .

Higher amperage is not a problem. It is a measure of available current which may or may not be necessary.
Lower amperage is a problem. If the pedal draws more current than the power supply can provide, you can burn out the supply.

Peter the international power supply comes with changeable plug modules - depending on which country your in -- and it automatically seeks the required voltage. We are 230v down here in NZ .... and Aussie too.

Mine says 240V 0.5 A and has a standard European plug (not interchangeable); a tiny generic Chinese unit that came with the Telonics VP when I bought it new from Tom Bradshaw – must have been when the pedal was launched; mine has the shiny polished aluminum finish which I think has been discontinued. No issues with the power supply.
