Would appreciate you linking me to your USB-C cable. I scored one that’s linked above off Amazon but it only pushes like 5v from the USB-C output. Not sure if that’s the cable or the output, but I measured it and it’s 5v.
Finally got mine sorted with these two products:
The battery pushes variable voltage from USB-C, but when I tried to power the QC from it, it would not boot. I measured voltage at 2.5v, assuming default voltage coming from the USB-C output tap.
Purchased the additional cable from Amazon, which essentially tells the battery to push 12v. Once that and the reverse polarity cable was added, the QC booted up and ran for 3 hours and only took down one bar, from the 4 total. Haven’t gigged it yet, but so far super happy with the solution.
Does anyone know if the D’addario XPND pedal power battery will power the Quad Cortex?
Says on the D’addario website “the kit is currently designed to only power 9-volt pedals under 500 mA”. The QC wired power supply is 12V @ 3A.
