Power bank issues

Ok, you got your soldering iron and nothing is going to hold you back, but you have no clue where to start or what to build. There were others before you with the same questions... read them first.

Hi

I have a 5 way power bank similar to the Signal Flex PS-9, Sound Lab Power Bank and the Meridian power bank it is unnamed so im not sure what make it is. I am currently building more pedals than the five outputs its offer and wondered if anyone knows if it is possible to run a daisy chains off the outputs to add more to my pedal board.

any help would be great!

Do you have any technical data? If so, you'll see the maximum power your unit can deliver.
Keep in mind that normally with 1A you can power more than 10 pedals.

sorry im really new to all this, according to a site i found it provides 5 output jacks, each providing a constant DC9V 450mA.

So if 1A can power more than 10 pedals and each output provides 450mA it should be able to power 5 pedals through a daisy chain right?

What I gather from looking at the picture is the power supply has 5 supply ports, but has a total current capacity of 450mA.
That would be about 90mA per output, or 225mA on two outputs (not using the other three), or any combination up to the
max current allotment. My guess is that there is only one power source with 5 parallel taps, much like having a daisy chain.
You run the risk of ground hum problems with such a rig. But that's just my take from looking at a picture.
