I am having trouble powering my Surfybear with my pedal power 2 plus

I cannot seem to power it with my pp2. It works pluged directly into the wall still. Is it possible to power the Surfybear with the PP2? I have the metal surfybear. Thanks! Top

The power supply that your surfy bear requires (and came with) is rated at 12V 3.33 amps. Surfybear needs 33x more amperage than what your PP2 plus can offer. — _ Hi, I'm Gellert, guitarist for The Fintastics. https://www.facebook.com/TheFintastics Top
