Frequently Asked Questions
Rockboard's isolation is very effective, comparable to many mid-range brands; it won't quite match the absolute silence of the very high-end options, but it's a significant improvement over cheaper power supplies.
It’s risky. While 150mA is decent, some high-demand pedals will likely exceed that limit, potentially causing instability or damage. Stick to lower-current effects.
Yes, the negative center polarity means you'll need polarity-changing adapters for pedals designed with a positive center polarity. Budget for a few of those if you have older gear.
