This is the power supply i use. Its been fine with all my pedals so far.
It states all the outputs are isolated, but there are a couple reviews which say otherwise.
As a side note - be aware the design has changed now, to a slimmer one, and it seems that only the 12v output is isolated
It depends on whether the other pedal simply has a centre-positive jack, or whether it's positive-ground - which is pretty much only some vintage-style fuzzes.
If it's simply a reversed jack then a reversing cable will work - if it's a positive-ground pedal then nothing other than a fully isolated power supply will work.
Just to confuse things, there are also a very few positive-ground pedals which use a centre-negative power supply, but you need an isolated power supply for those as well. (eg Fulltone '69.)

its an already assembled diy Gristleizer Fuzzdog kit. Not sure why its 9v positive, but the seller says it is.
Really want one, but dont want to have issues with my pedalboard.
TIP: - LEAVE - the plug - IN - your Pedal so you don't accidentally power it with the wrong tip - easily done when in a hurry

Bit of a pain in the arse, but i guess that would be the safest option.
Thanks for all the replies and help btw guys.
I have it placed so I can disconnect the input jack everytime I finish playing.
I think Diago as an adapter for these pedals so i may give that a go someday.

If it doesn't you'll need this:

if the one being sold is centre pos it’s been built wrong!!!!! I’d leave it alone tbh!.

DC-DC fully isolated converters are now common and relatively cheap. They can be had in power ratings from a watt or so to kWs and input and output voltages to fit any purpose. Has anyone put one in a tin for this job does anyone know?
If not, nice little earner there Sporks!
