Battery/powerbank powering Mscaler I can confirm this is big change from even good linear powers supply. Bigger sound stage, more depth, better separation, those are first impressions, but I think I have to look for bigger powerbank.

That is what I found as well. I use https://www.ravpower.com/products/rp-pb187-portable-power-station

I have one of these on the way.

I intend to use it with either the M scaler or the TT2, and obviously hoping for the sort of improvement that’s being mentioned here. Can anyone suggest which of the two boxes will give better results?

I chose Newell GP12 just to try it, now I will start to look for bigger one.

Why start looking for a bigger one? If you get a day/session out of the GP12, you could just buy two and have them rotating - one charging while one is running.

Good idea, you know I just started to my first tests, but this could be solution.

On those ravpower power stations, make sure that you are using the direct 12v DC out ports and not the A/C ports. You will need a DC to DC cable with standard size barrels on both ends.

May I ask how long a run time you get out of it?

Hi, may I ask which setting you will be using on this unit? The MScaler is rated at 15V 4A. I only see 20V 5A on this Battery. Just trying to understand everyone’s choices and settings that are chosen on Batteries.

Not this unit, but typically folks run them at 12V with no issues and from what I understand, safer than running it at 15v due to potential spikes.

There are two outputs on this particular power bank, 12v and 20v. Obviously I’ll be using the 12v option for the M scaler and/or the TT2.

Thank you. I’m beginning to understand what I need to look for with regards to Voltages and Amps Now. This looks like a good one. Please post your thoughts when you have received and tested it.

That Newell GP12 Battery looks great but finding one for sale in the UK is a bit of a nightmare.

I’m getting my Poweroak from Holland, but I’ve noticed you can get what looks like an identical unit in the UK (Maxoak) but it’s quite a bit more expensive. I’ll give feedback once I’ve tried it out.

Am I thinking correctly here, is this Battery Pack suitable?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08KW35...9Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

I can plug both DAVE & MScaler in via the 3 Pin AC Plug sockets (using the supplied mains adaptors from Chord) which offer a purer power from this pack but can also have the option to use one or both via the DC 12v 3A (without the Chord adaptors)out perhaps?

Your thoughts please are appreciated as I’m interested to see if I’ve got this right and this is a good option.
