Amperor Voltz Kit Tried and Tested by Scotlands Latest Major Up & Coming Band - The Ideal Panic

Voltz pedal power picks up where our competitors drop off

The Ideal Panic noticed that they were not able to use all their effects due to the fact they were set-up for line voltages from their homeland, Ayrshire, Scotland. They did have one of our competitors power supplies, but it only supplied voltages to pedals that required 9 and 18 VDC inputs. They had a pedal in particular, EHX Deluxe Memory Man taht required 25VDC and was rendered useless due to the fact that the power supply that came with the pedal only worked with 110VAC input power.

Enter Voltz Battery Powered Pedal Board Power Supply with universal AC input capabilities and battery power! Amperor helped set them up for the show and ran the EHX 24VDC pedal with battery power alone flawlessly for the entire show. If you are a touring band that regularly has to cross the pond during the course of the year, you will come to appreciate the Voltz universal input from 90~240 VAC that allows you to power your whole entire pedal board without any Ac adapters. The Voltz system powers effect pedals that use 9V, 12V, 15V, 18V, 24V and 40VDC inputs and each converter is DC isolated and regulated for superior noise free performance


The Ideal Panic, so who are they?




Since its inception in the early 2006, the band has been honing its sound and terrorizing audiences with key shows, including a support with The Harrisons at King Tuts and The Hazey Janes at ABC2. With a sound described as The Smiths and The Police out for a pint whilst getting into a brawl with The Doves the future is definitely bright for these 5 young lads. The result: a potent combination of catchy melodies jangly guitars and a powerful rhythm section

Here's what vocalist/Guitarist Chris Walker had to say about the Voltz kit:

"The Amperor Voltz supplies my pedals with clean and consistent power. Its battery operation keeps my rig quiet and hun-free, even with single coils, and can provide enough juice for my TC delay that used to require its own PSU. I love the freedom it affords me in the studio or stage as I don't need to position myself near a power outlet so my performance is not comprised and my set-up time is shortened. I have run it for rehearsal, studio session and two gigs without having to recharger!"

Bringing power to the pedals with Amperor VOLTZ music power kit


Irvine, Scotland - 16th June 2009- Amperor Europe a professional power supply design company and manufacturer, is pleased to announce the launch of the Voltz kit. Through this product Amperor is committed to help musicians and sound engineers to enhance their music and to simplft their work. Musicians can concentrate on making beautiful musical notes, while Amperors solutions will help them with tedious issues such as noise reduction, guiar pedal setup, power, and battery replacement

Amperor are introducing the Voltz kit, the most effect pedal power supply on the market. "The Voltz's built-in 6000mAh battery is so powerful that it can power up to 20 pedals for 8 consecutive hours from one charge. Additionally, the isolated output system can totally eliminate 60 cycle hum and ground loop hiss that bother musicians for decades" said Craig McQuiston , Technical Engineer




A few words from the CEO & president Dr. RC Ho:

"Our aim is to keep our customers happy, and our desire, by means of this website, is to work directly with you, to supply products that are tailored to your individual power needs" Amperor plans on adding more products, musician blogs & knowledge articles on their webpage and blog site in the coming months to become both the product and the knowledge leader in providing clean and safe power for musical instruments

So let's bring some power to these pedals

Introducing the most advanced effect pedal power supply ever - VOLTZ! A large 6.0Ah battery coupled with an integrated AC/DC and DC/DC charger allows you to power up to 20 pedals at a time, up to 8 hours in one charge anywhere in the world

No more 60 cycle hum or ground loop hiss to worry about . . . . The Voltz system is 100% guaranteed to solve all of your noise problems in your guitar effects pedal rig

With the milliVoltz isolated DC/DC converters, you are able to power any effect pedal requiring DC voltage from 9VDC to 40VDC. The millivoltz also has superior voltage regulation and can handle 500mA of current per output to get the best tone out of your pedals

Okay, milliVoltz, so what are they?

MilliVoltz isolated DC/Dc converters provide silent power to your pedal effects. They work by either bucking or boosting the input voltage from the Voltz battery pack unit to provide the required voltage for the effect pedal. Each milliVoltz converter has an output filter circuit as well as an isolation transformer which equates to no noise causing ground loops in the power chain

MilliVoltz are as powerful as a normal AC/DC wall wart, providing up to 750mA of output each, depending on the output voltage

MilliVoltz are also scalable because of the daisy-chain configuration in which they are installed. If your pedal board requires another output, all that is required is another MilliVoltz in the power chain

With the interchangeable tip configuration on the MilliVoltz, it is able to provide power to any effect pedal that requires DC voltage


Finally, you can throw away all of the noisy wall warts and never have to worry about a dead battery again . . .not to mention your set-up time will be reduced to just the time it takes to flip a switch

Okay can you summarise for me?

Versatile
Voltz pedal board power supply can provide power through the built-in battery pack. Users can also plug the Voltz power supply into an outlet on the wall. With isolated output adapters, Voltz power supply can convert the AC power into the voltage your effect pedals need

High Battery Capacity


Voltz pedal board power supply included a 6000 mAh Li-ion battery pack. It is powerful; enough to run a basic set of eight pedals for 24 consecutive hours on one run can be a full weeks worth of gigs and rehearsals

Charge and use Anywhere

Voltz pedal board power supply had an AC and an auto charger built-in on the unit. It can be charged while in the car, van, bus pr from the wall. Additionally the charger accepts universal input voltage, so it can be used anywhere in the world
