CIOKS DC7 Pedal Power Supply, Limited Edition Red (Gear Hero HQ Exclusive)

You get what you pay for and this thing rocks. I have no worries having my pedals powered by this power supply.

After using two other power supplies, I tried the CIOKS DC7 because of the variety of voltages it offered and the compact size. Because of these features I was able to mount the DC7 underneath my pedalboard, saving valuable space, enabling me to mount and power my 2 channel mixer on the board. An added bonus is the power cord is a standard cord, not the usual flimsy wall wart type. I definitely recommend the CIOKS DC7 without reservation.

Awesome power supply. All the cables you could want and super flexible.

My pedalboard was getting noisy with my old power supply. And I needed an upgrade. The DC7 looked perfect on paper, but was it worth the money? I debated long and hard and talked myself into ordering. In hindsight, there should not have been a debate. Its perfect. I have clean and noiseless power for all of my pedals, even in this old house. A lot of supplies could probably provide the same. But I really like the size. This is thin enough to fit under my Pedal Train Metro with room to spare. It came with a template and screws so it is solidly mounted under there. I also like the power gauge that tells me I have room to spare in the power availability (and if I need to down the line, this can be expanded with a DC4, I believe). The cables that came with it had everything I needed. But I do expect Ill need to pick up more cables as I add pedals. They appear cheap enough, so its not really a concern. In the end, Im quite happy. All of my pedals are quiet now. But this actually made my overdrive pedal sound better (maybe it was underpowered before). I would highly recommend the DC7. And I would definitely buy this again... Without the debate next time.

I originally was using a Donner power supply, but one day my BOSS pedal that was plugged into it. Stopped working? I couldn’t figure out what happened? I tried to fix the pedal, but no matter what I did, it just wouldn’t work anymore. After doing research. I found out the Donner power supply does not offer isolated power. It’s basically a daisy chain, so I figured somehow the power supply fried my pedal. I didn’t want to risk damage to any other pedal, that’s when I researched other better pedal power supplies. After a lot of research I went with the Cioks. Just for a laugh I decided to plug my broken BOSS pedal, and to my shock it worked again! It was like the Cioks gave it the jolt it needed. I also noticed all my other pedals seem to sound stronger like they too are getting more power. I’m am very happy with Cioks. I know it cost a lot, but as they say buy once, cry once. Save your pedals and yourself some headaches, and buy the Cioks. You won’t regret it.

So I definitely feel that after I buy my next pedal Ill have to buy a new pack of cables. But the supply itself is awesome. Best of the best.

Exactly as advertised. It is quiet, well-built, and delivers. The cables supplied are appreciated though they do not supply cables, 8800 or 1002, that split or join. I had to order them from Sweetwater.com. Not expensive, just another task before getting things setup right. In all, a really nice product and I definitely recommend.

This is hands down the best power supply on the market. And if you buy the Cioks grip you dont even have to drill holes in your pedalboard. Fits under the pedaltrain metro 24, 20 and 16 perfectly. If you need power options that are not included Cioks has different flex cables for any situation. Not all are included though.

I’m late to the power supply party. For ten years I ran a daisy chain from a one spot. Yeah, I’m cheap! But after watching multiple reviews of the Cioks power supply systems, I pulled the trigger and bought the DC7. Best decision I have made in years. Instead of splurging on an expensive pedal, buy a powerful power supply!

Awesome pedal power. Much better than my MXR and my one spot. It meets all my needs and more. Great for high MA usage pedals. Super clean with no added noise. This is the lowest profile pedal you can get. I use it with two splitters and I am able to power 9 pedals.
