I'm sure this has been discussed before but searching Pedaltrain on here gets sooo many hits...
Giving some thought to a Pedaltrain Jr to replace my couple of cheap end boards. Pedaltrain recommend their own power supplies and the Voodoolabs Pedalpower seems linked to it but these aren't cheap. At the moment I have a Diago daisy chain thing which works fine but it is looking a bit knackered and having a daisy chain undoes some of the neatness of having a Pedaltrain.
Something like a Harley Benton Jr would be cheap and seems well thought of but it's beyond me to work out if it fits underneath ( either with Velcro or using the power supply brackets).
So does anybody know what would fit underneath that is back down the cheap and cheerful end?
Tipton is a small fishing village in the borough of Sandwell.

I have a Maplins style power supply which I'm certain won't fit and the Diago one I currently use which will but I'd rather not use a one spot type.
This is what I have done with mine, it's one of those cheapo "Powerbank" branded 5 output jobs. It just about fits under the board and was admittedly done in a hurry before a rehearsal the night I got the Pedaltrain and I've not bothered to fix it yet. My excuse is that I'll buy something better once the band makes a bit of cash money. So that'll be never...
Everything has been reordered as well. I know have the G3x along the bottom left edge, DC Drive next to it and the BYOC OD 2 and a BYOC Large Beaver on a riser above it. The momentary switch sits on the top left edge.
no specific budget but under £50 I guess.
oh, that looks what I have in a box in the garage. I was fairly convinced it wouldn't fit! Is that held on with Velcro? Looks like you have a daisy chain, I do have one if the 5 leads aren't long enough ( I suspect they aren't). I'll be happy if that goes under a Jr.
I use a diago powerstation with my PT JR and as long as you clip the daisy chain out of the way it looks pretty neat I think, it is also really light and has been ultra reliable for years I would just keep that if it works ok with your current pedals.
Having done my last gig with the band on Saturday ( although I am auditioning replacements with them this weekend!) it isn't really urgent but a Pedaltrain is top of the shopping list if I do another band.
Not much power in it, though, only 120ma per output. Fine for most stomps, though.
