So am i rite to wire it together with my battery snap wire to the 3pdt switch ?

You've not set your photo account to be public, so I can't see your pictures. However, if it's a non-switching 2-conductor DC jack, you can definitely wire it to a battery snap(being careful of polarity), and snap it to your existing battery snap, giving you the option of unsnapping them and using a battery.

Hey Ricky how's it going?  did you just loose a TV ariel or was the wind even more serious?

Do I understand correctly that one of these "3 connector" 2.1mm plastic power plugs, will take over from the battery when hooked up to the PSU ?
or is there some other switching involved ??
IE:  still use the input jack "ring" to connect the battery - terminal to.

Hope you're well,
Regards,
Marty.

We were incredibly lucky with the storms, not much damage for us, but terrible for others in Florida.

Here's a link to a diagram showing how to wire a switching jack.

I'm for the classic model, it looks better from outside and.. cmon you just have to solder 3 points once in the whole life of the pedal.

I can't even find them here in Italy, i have to take em on small bear poor me!  :roll:

If U do lot's of mods, those jacks won't take that many resolderings before melting.

I'm desperate to find big LED bezels that screw in from the 'outside' too. At the moment, if I take a box apart, I have to unsilder the wires to the bezel, and that is lame.

Lumex has these LED holders that are just plastic that grip the LED and go into a .25" hole. They just pop in from the outside, or if you put  them in, the LED comes in from the inside.
