Features

• Included Voltz battery pack has self-contained charging system that can be
charged by 115VAC or 230VAC (plug it into the wall in the states or abroad) or
10~32V

• Easy to read gas gauge for battery pack allows you to easily read how much
power is left in the battery.

• Included milliVoltz power adapter lets you power your 9VDC and 18VDC pedal
effects with simple plug and play integration.

• Interchangeable tips allow you to power all of your pedals without the need to
buy extra input adapters.

• Available milliVoltz and Voltz accessories allow you to power the more exotic
effect pedals with input voltage requirements of 12.0VDC, 15.0VDC, 18.0VDC,

24.0VDC and 40.0VDC.

• Power as many effects pedals with one power supply because of the 90W power
output (that can power over 20 pedals twenty-four hours straight with a full
charge).

• Completely silent design. No connection to regular 115VAC means no 60cycle
hum and all isolated outputs mean no cross talk or ground loops to deal with.

• Protection circuitry makes it safe to use with any effect pedal.

Safety Precautions

Please read the following WARNINGS carefully before operating the Voltz and milliVoltz
battery-powered system.

WARNINGS

• Do not disassemble product (there is a risk of shock and also voids the warranty).

• Do not use Voltz in temperatures below 32OF (0OC) or above 104OF (40OC)

because this will shorten the life of the battery.

• Do not store Voltz in temperatures below –4OF (-20OC) or above 140OF (60OC)
because this will shorten the life of the battery.

• Avoid exposing Voltz to water or wet conditions (if this occurs, unplug power and
all accessories immediately).

• Do not expose Voltz to open flame or incinerate because battery may explode.

Getting Started

Before initial use, fully charge the Voltz battery.

***

• Plug Voltz unit into wall or car accessory voltage supply with provided AC cord or
DC car accessories adapter.

• Turn CHARGE / DISCHARGE switch on Voltz to CHARGE position.

• Allow charging for at least four hours or until FUEL GAUGE light has been

illuminated to GREEN for at least 30 minutes.

• Make sure that none of the milliVoltz accessories are attached to Voltz for initial
charging.

Choosing the right milliVoltz to power your effects

• 90% of effect pedals are going to require a 9VDC power input. These pedals
include most of the BOSS, LINE6, Dunlop, DOD and Digitech units. Usually you
can tell if a pedal pedal runs off of 9V
operation. It is also advised that you read through the owner’s manual of the
effect pedal itself. Also for a quick reference you can look in the compatibility
chart provided with your Voltz unit.

• If the pedal is not equipped with a battery compartment then usually it requires an
input voltage larger the 9VDC. Look at the DC input located on the effect pedal,
the owner’s manual of the effect pedal, the power supply that came with the
effect, or the compatibility chart provided with your Voltz unit.

• It is very important that you use the correct milliVoltz adapter for your effect
pedal. Damage to the pedal and/or milliVoltz may occur if the wrong setup is
used.

• If you are unsure of which milliVoltz power adapter your individual effect pedal
requires, please call Amperor Voltz tech support at 281807-3320 ext 106 or email

Choosing the right interchangeable tip for your effect.

• There are only two things to consider while selecting an interchangeable tip for
you affects pedal. One is the actual physical size of the tip (barrel length and
barrel width). Polarity of the tip is the most important factor though while
choosing a tip for you affects pedal.

• Please read the owners manual of the effect pedal or the enclosed Voltz
compatibility chart to determine proper tip size and polarity.

• For the actual size of the tip, looks at the effect pedal DC input or the power
supply that came with the effect pedal and find the size of the included
interchangeable tip the matches up the closest. Insert the tip (make sure the tip
is not connected to any power source) and lightly wiggle the tip around to make
sure there is no excessive play in the connection.

• Determine the polarity of the tip needed by checking your owner’s manual for the
effect pedal, the power supply that came with the effect, the Voltz compatibility
chart or by looking at the label on the DC input of the effects pedal you are trying
to power.

Important Operating Instructions

***Make sure the polarity marked on the milliVoltz tip matches that of you effect pedal***
***Make sure that the voltage marking on the milliVoltz tip matches the voltage

requirement of your effect pedal***
***Only use patch and guitar instrument cables that are grounded to avoid loss of

signal***
***Be sure that the Voltz unit is switched to CHARGE if equipment is not in use to avoid

the battery from being drained***
***When charging in AC or DC mode, make sure that the Voltz unit is switched to the

CHARGE position prior to plugging in***

***To play while charging, first turn switch to CHARGE position and then plug in AC or
DC power source***

***To play using only battery power, just flip the Voltz switch to DISCHARGE and you
will have hours of isolated power at you disposal… make sure you turn the Voltz unit
back to CHARGE after you are finished to avoid draining the battery***

***Make sure you periodically plug and unplug mechanical connections on your pedal
board and turn knobs such as volume and trim pots (monthly). This will keep
connections and knobs clean preventing failure during performance***
