Power Block Plug'N'Play
Réf. PB_PNP_9VMade by : Vaudoo Audio
The power block is a substitute to the 9V battery of your active instrument.
Our system has been developed by musicians and with the knowledge of our CECIELEC electronics design office. It is designed and manufactured in France.
By installing it, your guitar or bass becomes rechargeable and offers you:
- Peace of mind : no more breakdowns or the stress of the back-up battery
- Eco-friendly : stop disposable (batteries)
- Sound quality : clean and stable audio power supply
- Longevity : over 2000 charge cycles and replaceable battery.
The Power Block Plug'N'Play can be ordered:
- with a voltage of 9V (better autonomy) or 18V (better headroom)
- with a quick connector (easier integration) or a wired output (OEM version : slightly shorter card, for shortest cavity and discreet integration)
Recommended accessories:
- A plate for "battery box" typical installations
- A light diffuser for discret installations, "under plate easily removable" type
- A filter for systems consuming less than 0.3mA (active microphones and boosters)
If you're still in any doubt about which version to choose, visit our SITE to find the additional information you need.
EASY INTEGRATION AND PERFECT ADAPTATION
- Perfect integration => we've copied the shape of most battery boxes and battery doors. Also examples for instruments without a battery box.
- Easy installation => equipped with a quick connector, there's no soldering or luthiery modifications to make.
- Preamplifier compatibility => can be used with Vaudoo-Audio preamplifiers, but also with all preamplifiers operating on 9V and consuming a maximum of 12mA (or 18V and consuming a maximum of 10mA).
- Active pickups and booster compatibility => with the "PnP filter" accessory, available with wire output, or directly equipped with 1 or 2 standard connectors for active pickups.
- USB interface => Allows you to recharge your instrument quickly with any standard USB charger (micro-USB and USB-C*).
*by taking the USB-C adapter option
AUDIOPHILE AND INTELLIGENT ELECTRONICS
- Stable, clean voltage => stays at 9V (or 18V) throughout its use, unlike a battery which drops from 9V to 6V (see graph).
- Jack detection => the system goes to sleep and wakes up when the jack is disconnected or reconnected.
- Automatic stop => stops charging when the battery is full (so you can leave the charger plugged in between 2 rehearsals).
- Return light => indicates how much battery power you have left (green, yellow and red) or the state of charge (blue).
- Battery protection => safety shutdown when battery level is too low, so you never damage it.
INNOVATIVE BATTERY, BUILT TO LAST
- Increased autonomy => equivalent to half a good 9V battery, ranging from 60h to 185h (measured on our preamp range) and 2 years in system sleep mode.
- Fast charge => 10 min charge for 8 to 25h of play (measured on our preamp range).
- Optimized life => offers four times the life of conventional lithium batteries (LiPo, Li-Ion) with a gentle charge.
- Tested and safe => no risk of external effects, no dangerous flames or overheating in case of mistreatment, unlike usual lithium technologies.
