I commend you for making these power supply videos. It angers me more than anything when power supplies are falsely advertised as isolated when they are just a daisy chain in a box. You’re helping out many people 👍
Thank you, at least someone on youtube realizes this is an important topic! Even though pedal reviews may be more interesting, this is arguably more important!
Ну если поможет-то слава богу. У меня ламповые приборы подключены тем самым daisy chain, он же параллельное подключение. Работают без шумов. Подключать через этот прибор смысла не было, они все 12 вольтовые, а выходов было меньше чем педалей. :)
Well, a lot of you guys tell me that these are probably vitoos units rebranded as Harley Benton. The thing is-I live in Germany and I use the parts that are available here. And I've never seen Vitoos power units on the german market. And of course I've never looked inside of Vitoos to compare these devises. And I don't know the inside information about chinese brands and retailers who sell the same things under different brand name. One thing that is important for me is warranty from Thomann. This german retailer stays behind its own brand and makes good quality control. And this is for low price as well. The point is- I don't know if HB is rebranded Vitoos or not.
I bought an ISO that powers 8 devices. I'm powering an EVENTIDE SPACE REVERB, PETERSON STROBE TUNER, & a DEPT 10 DUALDRIVE. Plugging these in, the Dept 10 DualDrive powers itself off eventually, taking between 2 & less than 10 minutes. Switching outputs yields the same results. I have a Truetone Milliamp tester & the DualDrive pulls no more than 440 ma. I contacted Thomann about this; they suggested a doubler cable. This is very disheartening, very disappointing.
Hi very good review, thanks a lot, can i just ask you one thing please ? The modular models like the ISO-1AC Pro Modular don't use the power supply like the ISO-1 Pro but they go stright into the wall to be powered, do you think it's better ? why do you think they didn't use the same supply for both models, either via power supply or straight into the wall ? Thanks a lot, i'm about to buy one and i'm thinking which one to get.....
Well, first of all-I've never tested ISO 1 AC, so I can't tell. But, if they do the job-just use it. I don't really care, what kind of circuit they use, as long as they deliver isolated outputs. However, I noticed, that ISO 1 AC is heavier, and it delivers less power. ISO Pro series give 300 mA on each output at least, I can power some tube preamps with those, ISO 1 AS gives less. So, something that is lighter and gives more power is my personal choice.
Hi! What Daisy chain power adaptor are you using? I am considering to power my two digital pedals (310mA each) getting a Truetone One spot Daisy chain but not sure about possible feedback noise. Otherwise...I could get a Powerplant ISO 1 pro instead.
Hey there. I'm not using any daisy chains ever since I've got Powerplants. Before that I was using some daisy chain cables with line6 adaptor for relay G30 wireless system, that was basically delivered with G30 system. But I had a couple of analog pedals like tuner and overdrive, and that's all. With 310 mA you should probably go with Iso 1, it's twice the price of Truetone, but you will not run into issues with noise. According to Thomann reviews of Truetone, it has a lot of noise even with analog devices without daisy chain. I don't know if it's true, never tested it myself, but I can assure that Powerplant Iso 1 is really good one wihtout any issues. Besides you get multiple outputs for another devices, if you need any.
Well, I tried to make it as short as possible. :) I referenced the reviews of ISO 2 Pro and original powerplant, because some people might ask what the hell are daisy chains, why isolated is good or what are ground loops. So if someone is not familiar with these kind of questions, he might look at previous videos, where I mentioned it. I try to keep talking as little as possible, besides I have awful free speech.
@@me.113 There are some powerbanks that give 12 v, like this one www.thomann.de/de/harley_benton_powerplant_powerbank_473801.htm You can power the unit with it. However you 'll get some power loss, so I don't know how long will it hold. There is something like ths on the market as well www.musicstore.de/de_DE/EUR/Fame-Voltor-8/art-GIT0046829-000 however I haven't tested it yet, so I don't know how it works or if it is isolated and noise free
Hi, i am thinkin of getting uk 3pin power supply with similar power rating to replace the supplied one . how does the ios 5 pro react to non harley benton power supply? Noise wise.
Well, noise issues might be caused by non-regulated supply. But the regulators and filter capacitors are inside the unit itself, so if you plug 12 V 2000 mA center negative it should work the same way. Unless you order power supply from AliExpres and it doesn't have the parameters you need. In fact, most of the power supplies are simmilar, you can't do anything wrong. It's like-can you plug ENGL amp to Marshall Cabinet? Or HP computer to non HP monitor
Дружище привет, купил Harley Benton power plant, подцепил 7 педалей, и от перегруза, бустера или компрессора, гудит, что делать, не ожидал такой подставы
Я вам уже в предыдущем комментарии ответил, но на всякий случай у я про что и говорю в видео-это обычный кабель класса daisy chain, то есть-параллельное подключение педалей, просто в большом корпусе. Что делать? ну например-подключить одну педаль таким кабелем, а к остальным подвести только плюс и отрубить минус. Таким образом мы избегаем так называемых земляных петель. Может помочь. А может не помочь. А еще лучше-купить то, что не шумит, например такое ruclips.net/video/wl1YXMQ9Faw/видео.html или такое ruclips.net/video/9OeFVq3VaMo/видео.html или такое ruclips.net/video/TkHFIZzkwZk/видео.html Они точно не шумят. Вы, молодой человек, откуда родом? ежели в Германии проживаете. то можете вернуть обратно, и вам деньги выдадут, а на возвращенные деньги можете купить что то из того, что я выше упомянул. И будет вам счастье. Как гарантии возврата за пределами Германии работают-я не знаю

You are welcome. :)
Great review. This has given me the confidence to buy the iso 5. Many thanks
You are welcome
Thank you very much for your review, I was thinking about the ISO2, but I think I am going for the ISO 5, since it is cheaper, if I am not wrong.
Yes, it's cheaper
Very sympathetic. Thx for the review.
You are welcome
Godsend video. Thank you man! ❤️
You are welcome :)
thanks, quite useful.
you are welcome
thank you so much for this
These Harley Benton Supply Videos are godsend!
Большое спасибо. Скорее всего возьму ISO5. Если честно, рад что этот "визг" был из-за моей daisy chain, а не фонящей лампы.
Ну если поможет-то слава богу. У меня ламповые приборы подключены тем самым daisy chain, он же параллельное подключение. Работают без шумов. Подключать через этот прибор смысла не было, они все 12 вольтовые, а выходов было меньше чем педалей. :)

Do you know the Joyo JP-06? Does it do the same thing individually per pedal when it comes to isolation ?
No, I don`t know. Sorry.

Thinking to get one of iso1 Pro, but if I run 4 or 5 pedals how many hours will run out of battery?
What kind of battery do you mean? ISO series don't have batteries, they are plugged to power socket to run without batteries.
@@leothemetal ohh sorry I was wrong. I was thinking is work like power bank. Many thanks.
Or if I can run the the power from powerbank by 5v to 12v adaptor, Do you think will work well?
@@me.113 There are some powerbanks that give 12 v, like this one

You can power the unit with it. However you 'll get some power loss, so I don't know how long will it hold.
