VS Daisy chain spoilt?

[fibredrive]

tried using the VS daisy chain but doesn't seem to work. the 1 spot adapter works fine though. i fit the Daisy chain and it seems to only power one pedal at a time. don't undertsand. anybody experienced the same problem before? pedals are EHX Nano small stone / small clone and marshall echohead. the small stone seems to have a problem tho, can't seem to make it work with the adapter, but works fine with the battery! argh..
all pedals are hooked thru my fx loop on the amp..
thks folks!

i own the VS OneSpot as well and perhaps you could try various parts of the daisy chain before concluding the defect. Usually it wouldnt fail unless its been damaged along the chain. I did have trouble powering my GE-7 once but i found out its the loose adapter slot!!~ Hope this helps 8)

thks for the reply. tried it with the rest and it doesn't seem to work. i plug the 1 spot into each pedal and it works. then i connect the daisy chain and plug into the 1st pedal and it works. i connect the next in the chain and both pedals stop working! its frustrating at best! argh! i made sure everyhting's nice and tight and working. might have some doubts about the ehx nanao small stone. think its defective. sigh..

yeah it could be what i experience so maybe you should get it looked at. the daisy chain rarely fails i guess...unless you stomp on them to make it haywire

Apparently the nano clone is reversed polarity from the more common pedals. If you daisy chain anything with it, the ground shorts to the live and you get nothing.

woah. shucks. guess its batteries all the way, no way to daisy chain the ehx pedals? argh!
