So any usb c pd 12v with the proper barrel size should work?
I just ordered an Anker 747 to power a bunch of gear I’m building in a box. I figure I should be able to do 2 Elektron with the USB, 1 elektron and 1 motu with the 2 ac, and an iPad and micromonsta2 with the remaining USB.
Apparently, Anker batteries often don’t support 12v. They’ll do 5 or 6, 9, 15, 18… but not 12. I tried with one (and the Birdcord PD12v) and could power my OT, but not my AR or ST. Changed the powerbank to the Baseus one Songbird recommend and it’s been brilliant.
(Oh… I read further down the thread and this has already been discussed. Sorry).
Yo yo. I’m going to check out the PD supply that @tomasu got for my rig (Single powering options for multiple devices - #55 by tomasu). Would you mind sharing with me the exact link for the PD cables you got for the 3 Digis?
Oooooh. I thought you had actual cables. Just using regular usb pd cables, then?
Yes, any regular USB c cable can be used
hi guys, Im confused, it says on the electron website, that Syntakt (just like Digitakt and Digitone, etc) needs:
I have a ripcord 12V (previously bought for a Digitakt) but it won’t fit on my brand new Syntakt, Im wondering if this one from Amazon will do the job:
Can anyone recommend a USB PD power bank with more than one USB-C capable of powering two or three Elektron devices at the same time?
I have a power bank that works already but it only has one USB-C PD port
Edit: might try this one

most, if not all USB power banks will “smart redistribute” power when you plug in a second device, which cuts power to the first device for a second. that reason, as much as anything, has kept me from looking too hard for a single power bank like this
nice 
care to share the deetz?
looks very slick.
I got this 10000 mAh powerbank that is the slimmest I’ve found: https://www.amazon.se/dp/B09G39KZM2.
Then the birdcord itself of course. 
lovely 
Now I just need to figure out a neat way to stick it on the underside. I’m thinking a thin metal sheet with folded/bent corners for stability and a tilted angle and room for the powerbank. And then attaching the metal sheet via the vesa holes so I can velcro the powerbank to its underside.
Well, basically this: Birdcord PD ➔ 12V (USB PD Voltage Converter) | Songbird FX and this: https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Charger-Baseus-20000mAh-Charging/dp/B08THCNNCS?crid=30CNNE2PR3HA9&keywords=baseus%2B65w%2Bpd%2B20000mah&qid=1663924299&refresh=1&sprefix=baseus%2B65w%2Bpd%2B20000mah%2Caps%2C183&sr=8-3&linkCode=sl1&tag=songbird04a-20&linkId=82b3c2f4899ca13bfd6fd88ad98cb3d0&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl&th=1
should work seamlessly together to power Syntakt.
Looks nice! Economic size and price
How does it hold up in use, with battery life and all?
It’s nice, I use it in bed and still wish it was fixed underneath the Syntakt somehow, I might build something at some point.
10000 mAh lasts about 3 hours by my estimation, though that probably depends on how much you play vs program things. For my use cases that’s plenty of time, since I plug into mains whenever I can.
Got it yeah that would be nice!
Nice, 3 hours sounds solid! Especially for such a compact thing
Would it fit into something like this? Battery in the cover pocket. Might make it very hot though with the fabric and no vents
Hi, would this power the syntakt ok with the birdcord?
