obbm Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) The bass amp at our local jam sounds very flat so I’d like to use my Flyrig as it gives the sound I want. In order to facilitate quick change-overs it needs to be battery powered. It works fine on a PP3 but lacks some oomph. Has anyone attempted this or can recommend a good 9-volt battery solution.

danweb22 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I use the following for home practice so I don’t have to find an adjacent socket. It powers my Origin Effects Bassrig and a headphone amp (with an extra cable) Lasts a long time and just recharge the pack when you need to.

Downunderwonder Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 What's wrong with carrying a double plug and a 9v wart? 9/10 there's a spare outlet so the double plug is only for the 1/10 time. Blimin' sight easier than carrying a battery power pack. You would do well to learn where flat enough EQ is on the controls of a few of the likely suspect amps in your area. Then you can plug in the front and no worries about pedal output level like you get plugging in the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 I use this to power 9 Volts item and it really lasts around 5 hours. It's almost the only powerful 9 Volts power bank I found a few years ago... It also integrates a torch lamp, which is very useful, has 2 x 9Volts sockets and a "power left" display. https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_powerplant_powerbank.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks ideal. Thanks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I've got a Rockboard Powerbank XL for that sort of thing. Works well and it can be used while being charged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obbm Posted December 8, 2022 Author Share Posted December 8, 2022 Thanks for the suggestions. I've ordered the larger Harley Benton Power Bank which also does 18v so hopefully I can run my Ashdown Pre-DI as an alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
