Mr. Foxen Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 If I rig together two battery clips in series to a third, can I just clip that to the one in there already to run my pickups at 18v? Looking for a non-carving up anything tester to see if it is a worthwhile mod. Could someone run me through which wires to attach to make the polarity right.

~tl Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I don't see why not. It should be connected something like this: [attachment=19522:Untitled.jpg] Please excuse my crap drawing skills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcrow Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) i thought those little clips could be fixed across the batts then the wiring is done like parallel on a humbucker so forming a compact block of batteries and maybe wouldnt fit in the body...?

Mr. Foxen Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 The batteries can be fairly seperate, I managed to fit a couple into a warlock body, no spacious and a couple into an SG body, (not deep), so its doable. I found it cleans up the sound, instead of sounding like EMG's, a bit compressed and such, its suddenly very transparent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 EMG's go up to 27V, why stop at 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
