Using the Triad to Supply
9.6vdc to Other Pedals

The 2.1mm "Boss" standard jack on the rear provides 9.6vdc power, allowing the Triad to supply power to connected tip negative 2.1mm 9vdc pedals.

To power more than one pedal, a daisy chain or parallel power cable must be used. Both Boss and Visual Sound offer standard 2.1mm tip negative daisy chain cables. As users inform me of other known good sources I will list them here.

Up to 300ma worth of pedals can be powered safely by the Triad. As the average guitar pedal uses between 30ma and 50ma of power, with big hogs like the Boss twin pedal series taking 200ma, the Triad can easily power the average sized board.

Notice the plug in the 9.6vdc jack. This is there to prevent the user from accidentally plugging the 9vac supply into the 9.6vdc jack. This plug just pulls out, but please read this information before you remove it.
