Anybody use one of those tiny little things to power their pedals?

I got one of these.
very small, isolated and powers 10 pedals including 12v and 18v. All for £40 squidsz

That looks very good for the money. Got a couple of Diago micropowers which are fine, but would be good to have one soley for gigging so I don't have to keep unplugging/plugging everytime.

I got one of these... £1.60 - works a treat!

According to HotRox the mooer is isolated every output.  

The Mooer does not have isolated outputs, just "independent"... which is basically marketing-speak for "separate", said in a way that might be mistaken for "isolated".

Wow. I just got a huge but solid Fame isolated power supply which does the job, but that'un looks like it could save me a load of pedalboard space...

I've also got one of those Fame power supplies - they're pretty good but just too big and heavy so mine never gets used. It's a huge plus that it doesn't have an easily damaged wall wart cable plug and uses a standard IEC cable (I'm going to make the mistake of calling it a kettle lead!).

Do you know if this is isolated or not?

You can get an AA pack from Maplin that will plug into that. AAs are way cheaper per watt than PP3s and such a pack will last one out many times over. You can also get a 9V AAA pack and a 12V pack, the latter will give you a significant increase in headroom if you want "clean".

You can of course go ape***t with money and stuff one with Lithiums (camera batteries) when you will get a really long life even on juice hungry digital pedals.

Is that Mooer Micro Power thing really isolated on every output? Read a couple of reviews where they say they aren't (can't think why a non-isolated power supply of 8 x 300mA outputs would be well over 60 quid so they're most probably wrong).

I'd like to know this too. I have a onespot and it'd awful for noise in some rooms so I want something small and isolated!

looking at the labelling on the unit it looks as though the 1st 4 are isolated, and the last 4 are shared

Wasn't one of these was it?

Real shame they stopped making them. Panasonic now own the Eneloop brand (maybe Sanyo too) so it would be cool if they reissued them.
