hello guys,
i was looking at the boss pedals at bossarea and since i was missing my long-dead ps-3, i looked at it. i noticed something at the specs which said its current draw is 70 mA. in comparison, overdrives and distortions, chorus, usually have only a less 30 mA draw. now since i powered all my pedals (6 in all) from one wall wart which a tech regulated to give out about 100 mA, did i underpower the ps-3 and cause its demise? i originally had that adapter to power an hm-2, a dd-3, ch-1.

cheers,
ldr

I doubt you could damage the PS-3 by giving it too little power - it may not have worked as intended, but it shouldn't take any damage. After all, underpowering is what happens when the battery runs out. You could damage the adapter, though.
