1 SPOT Technology… what does that mean and why should I care? Technically, it’s switching power supply technology, which is very different than what anyone has ever put inside a power brick. Normally, you would find just a big transformer and a handful of small electronic components inside a power brick… old tech that hasn’t changed in decades and has a lot of limitations. We took the same triple filtered switching power supply technology found in our famous 1 SPOT and scaled it up to make the 1 SPOT Pro models. With much more space to work with, we were able to completely eliminate noise, provide total electrical isolation between outputs, create multiple voltages, and still give you the ability to use it anywhere in the world.
A major benefit of using a switching power supply is that it can handle far more current (power being pulled out of it) than any transformer-based power supply. Although we had to put power rating labels on each output to satisfy certification agencies (yes, we actually certified these, unlike many companies), the outputs can generally handle far more than the label shows. For example, you can connect a 300mA pedal to a 200mA output, without causing any problems. With a transformer-based power supply, you can’t get away with that. The important thing is to not exceed the total of all the labels. With a CS7 (for example), the output labels add up to 1900mA total. That means the total current draw of all your pedals should be less than 1900mA.
Input Voltage
12Vdc 2.5A. External power supply (included with XP5-PS) must have a 5.5x2.1mm barrel plug, center pin positive. The XP5 is also designed to be powered directly from the output on the back of a 1 SPOT Pro CS11.
Cables
The 1 SPOT Pro XP5 includes an assortment of DC cables. The cables are of various lengths, color-coded for easy cable management and with right angle plugs on the pedal end.
DC Power cables (all are center pin negative polarity):
(3) DC18 (5.5x2.1mm barrel plugs; 18” (457mm) – White
(2) DC12 (5.5x2.1mm barrel plugs; 12” (305mm) – Yellow
(1) DCLINK - Two right angle 5.5x2.1mm barrel plugs, 20" (508mm) - Black
International Adapter
The XP5 does not come with an external power adapter. If you do not intend to power the XP5 from a CS11, please see the XP5-PS, which includes an international power adapter. If you decide you need an external power supply later, you may purchase one from Truetone here.
Available Output Voltages
All outputs are 9Vdc, 500mA.
Dimensions
88 x 88 x 30mm (3.46 x 3.46 x 1.18”); 336 grams (0.74 lbs.) - weight and dimensions of XP5 only, not including cables or packaging.
