This is what I'm starting to run into.screamingdaisy wrote: ↑Thu Oct 10, 2024 1:05 am I replaced my old PP2 (OG, no +) with a Cioks SOL. Works great, seems well built, 660w taps, no complaints.
No complaints about the PP2 either. It's around 20 years old now with zero issues, however the 100w taps were starting to become problematic.

100mA. If you see a 100w Tap, that's probably an AliExpress power supply.
Re: Getting modern with Cioks
lol yeah, what are we talking about watts here for.
I like 5150s. The rest of you bullshit amps can get fucked.

Should be arriving today. These kinds of purchases are never the most fun but very important
Looking forward to being back to one plug from the board again though. The HX wall wart has been annoying me

Re: Getting modern with Cioks
Just arrived. I would start ripping apart my pedalboard now but I’ve got a rehearsal I have to go to almost immediately after work so that sounds risky
Will probably set up later tonight afterwords

Re: Getting modern with Cioks
Congrats. Now I want one of these. The size would totally fit under my small pedal board.
Re: Getting modern with Cioks
Yeah, the SOL fits under the Pedaltrain Nano.

Re: Getting modern with Cioks
Thank you, comrade Leonard
Got it all wired up last night. Love the size and form factor. Placement of the IEC is nice too because I can put my board in the gig bag leaving that connected now. Always had to unplug the voodoo as it was sticking straight out the back
Kind of wanting to use that USB port to just permanently have my MIDI switch plugged in, the fact that its just something you charge makes me feel a little uneasy. Is there any issue with potentially damaging the battery in there always leaving it plugged in though?
