Smallest 48v power supply

[foliver]

Hello, i want to reduce size and weight of my denecke 48v for wireless boom, someone knows a real compact one to use with a tx? Plug ons are not an option, thanks!

An old ASC "black box" P48 psu is a little smaller, but hard to find.  I still have one but it uses 22v batteries that are hard to find anymore.

Txs for your answer Philip, 22v...uhhh

Yeah, 22v mercury batteries, with one contact on each end, made for OLD radio gear I guess.  I bought the PSU new in the early '80s.  Works great if you can find these batts, but still not really a whole lot smaller than the Denecke.  Maybe you could make something from a kit or plans that had "flying" leads?  It's the XLR connectors than make the Denecke so big.

Thanks for your answers Philip and Lancashire, the ambient is expensive but looks good!

As I recall, Core Sound, who makes the Tetramic, also had a small phantom PSU.  http://www.core-sound.com/2Phant/1.php

I've done some comparisons a couple of years ago:

48v

UMP II: 160g incl batteries)

92x57x18mm

PWLIII: 150g (inkl. Batteries)

115x36x26mm

Kortwich: 85g (inkl batteries)

78x40x22mm

Have the Ambient. Very light and reliable, works with normal AAs and draws little power. Only negative: It's nearly impossible to mount it somewhere without accessories.

There is also this: http://www.audiowireless.co.uk/products/audio-wireless-in-line-p48-power-supply

You might want to check out the MozeGear line of products like the 'Pip' or the 'Mini Papi.'

I have the Ambient one too - I found a tiny neoprene belt pouch for generic digital cameras that fits it perfectly for a few dollars that I cable-tied to one side of a Rycote shock mount handle, with a Lectro SM pouch on the other side for a wireless boom. Feels about the same as a plug-on in a similar position.

Very good información, thanks all!!

I've been waiting for the Mini Papi. Did it ever come out?

Anyone know if it or the Ambient or any of the others can output line level?

I use the Kortwich power supply, very small and light, runs for a day on a 9V, and sells at a decent price.

[ao]

you did not mention which wireless system you were planning to use the power supply with.  I used an areitec pico48 with my zax wireless,  before the 742 plug-on was available.  lightweight,  one 9volt battery.

Just found this other thread: 

Kortwich looks very promising as does the AudioRoot Femto:

(but not for wireless boom unfortunately)

I use this excellent phantom power with my wirelesses : Lebel audio PWL III

Very good sound, very low consomption (only one LR6 for one day).

Hi Christian
Are you using the VCP-M1 ?
There is no mention of a 9V powering possibility on the Kortwich site.
All the Kortwich preamps seem to be powered only through a Hirose.

The second item is the phantom power box. It runs on a 9V. Very satisfied with it. Works with all my mics (Schoeps etc.)
