  1. Thank you so much for you quick reply! I actually used to power my Shuriken Variax with a Helix LT and never noticed the high pitch hiss, but it might as well be the noise gate so I will need to bring it back home to test again. But I also don't remember hearing that while using the battery... that's why I believe the problem lies within this new box (I don't know how to call it lol) Anyway, I am actually using an old 5v2a PSP power supply from Sony that I have lying around, and I bought a very specific plug so that I can use it, so I can't easily test with other power sources ;'( But for the time being I don't hear the noise when there is a noise gate so I guess I will live with that for now, at least I don't need to carry my Helix LT back and forth around just to power my guitar for recording.
  2. Thanks @cbrillow! I have successfully made a box that works, but there is sometimes high pitch hiss, is that bad electronics or bad power source?
  3. Hello! I came across this post and wanted to ask a few questions... - Do I need 9v or 7.5v? I have seen people saying that it should be 9v, or that higher voltage would work (albeit not recommended, at least I guess not officially). I have a shuriken and so I took a look at the battery included, it says 7.4v... Now I am a little bit confused because if that's the case, do I want 9v or 7.5v? Or does it really matter? - I am not very knowledgable in electronics, when I was looking at the graph that @westryder made, I am not sure if my 9v 1.67a / 5v 2a power supply would work. Do I need a charger that only do 5v 2a or is mine okay to be used? Thanks!
