Providence Introduces Provolt 9 Power Supply

Providence Provolt 9 Power SupplyProvidence has introduced the Provolt 9, a compact power supply with six 9 volt outputs, each output giving up to 100mA. The box features an auto voltage controller, which supplies the ideal output for each device you connect to it. Providence says even a brand new battery can vary from 9.4 to 9.8 volts, causing noticeable, albeit small change in sound quality. The Provolt 9 provides a consistent 9.6 volts DC to your pedals.

The device also has a short protection and auto recovery, effectively safeguarding its internal circuitry should a short occur while maintaining power to the other outputs. Once the short is resolved, the affected output automatically resumes normal activity.
