Specs, Description

10-piece kit comprised of the "Power Station" power supply, which is placed at, or near the amplifier, and the "Power Splitter", which is placed with the other pedals on a pedalboard. The P3 External Kit allows a guitarist/musician to use P3 Technology without modifying their existing amp or pedals, and will operate with P3 Ready gear, allowing a player to integrate P3 Ready gear into their rig to progressively move to an all P3 Ready setup. Either of the two pieces contained in the kit is available for purchase separately, as some people with P3 Enabled amps may need only the Power Splitter.

A Pedal Junky's Best Friend

"I recently had a chance to try this stuff and I must say I was absolutely floored with amazement."

The wonderful world of stompboxes. What a magnificent thing it can be. For those of us who dabble in the art of noise nothing can be better. For me it is the hunt that attracts me to it all and keeps things exciting. The tweaking and experimenting of different sounds, the blending and pairing of certain pedals, and the extra push or color they can give our tone. But where there's a positive there is always a negative. In the effect pedal world that negative is the hassle of finding a player friendly way of powering our gear.

This is where DC Voltage comes into play, and where the pedal power problem goes away. Imagine not having to deal with dead batteries, power adapters, power strips, extension chords, and the time they're all capable of eating up. This is now possible with DC Voltage's P3 Technology line of products. I recently had a chance to try this stuff and I must say I was absolutely floored with amazement. Let's take a closer look at this gear shall we?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

January 13, 2012

Gaithersburg, MD - The DC Voltage Company announces full production of the P3 Universal External Kit. This adaptable kit allows easy application of P3 Technology® benefits to existing pedals, pedalboards, and active pickups.

Remotely supplying abundant, regulated power via standard cables, the patented and proven P3 Technology completely eliminates the need for 9-volt batteries, removes power cabling, cumbersome wall-warts, and the need for AC mains at the pedalboard; stabilizes tone and performance while halting ground-loop hum; stops voltage droop and resulting signal loss or degradation; and makes the dreaded "dead on arrival" a pain of the past.

With P3 Technology -- called "a pedal junky's best friend," and "a godsend for professional musicians" -- power flows one way and signal the other over a single cable, while power problems and concerns essentially vanish. Jason Robling, President of DC Voltage Company, describes P3 Technology as, "the definitive end to pedal power problems - No more dead batteries."

The comprehensive P3 Universal External Kit, priced at US $149 and available directly from http://dcvoltage.net/p3/kits, includes a P3 Power Station which sits near the amplifier, a P3 Power Splitter which sits near the pedals, a 20-foot stereo (TRS) guitar cable, six DC barrel cables with various connectors, and comprehensive instructions and support. A tiny, optional converter is available for pedals requiring 18 volts.
