        I really want an H90 to be a part of my pedal board…..however….. it seems there is no EASY or CLEAR power brick supply that can EASILY support the H90?

        I saw some forum posts. It looks like it takes a PhD in electricity and $500 worth of power supplies and cables to make it work.

        PLEASE – don’t tell me it comes with a power supply; if I want to make the H90 as part of my pedal board, which means I have to power it with a power brick (this is a MUST). I am not using the adapter that comes with it.

        Is there REALLY a specific (SINGULAR) power brick that I can use that genuinely supports the 800mA requirements and center positive cabling??

          These are great options that will power the H90 using one outlet running at 12V:

            The definitive source just replied above.  This thread fleshes these units out, along with some other options.  I like to keep current doubling cables, polarity flippers, and connection adapters as last resorts.

            Around a month back, I bought a CIOKS DC7 to power multiple H90s + other effects on my expanding main ‘board.  The previous PowerFactor 2 was fine for multiple H9s.  Getting long in the tooth for more current digital effects, so it’s been relegated to another placement.

            As I recall, it came with one green Flex cable, compatible with the H90.  But I did have a few more lying around from the previous P/S, and they remain fairly cheap.  Prices are climbing everywhere, but the good folks at Gear Hero price-matched this purchase.

            Compared to the PowerFactor 2, the DC7 is as light as a feather.  Amazing, considering the size reduction, expandability, available power, isolation, & output configurations.  More than once, I’ve found uses for that USB outlet.

            No affiliation, just a suggestion for a solid, capable option that’ll grow with your ‘board.  Who still warranties their products for 5 years?

              I’m using a Voodoo Lab Mondo power brick and it works great. I don’t know why others wouldn’t work, but of course make sure to use a positive-tip cable from brick to H90, just like the H9.
