Solid ... but check if it works for you.
Zak K 18.02.2026
The product is solidly built, and the unboxing experience was great! With a height of 20mm, it is probably thin enough to be tucked right under your pedalboard for convenient wiring. The charger comes with a cable that isn't very long, which means you need a power supply quite near your feet or within your immediate performance space. Thomann was so kind as to throw in an earthed travel adapter, which is good the the US and even Thailand.

Before I continue, please keep this in mind: all pedalboards are unique. The product did not work for me, but it could still work well for others with similar setups. You just have to try it for yourself.

My main travel board has a mixture of analog and digital pedals, ranging from low power consumption (under 7mA) to high consumption (380mA). I had been using a Mooer 2A power supply and a daisy-chain system, which produced barely noticeable noise levels—until I added a high-consumption digital pedal. Initially, I resolved this by using an individual Joyo ZGP Noise Blocker (available here on Thomann). However, as I added more pedals to my setup, the noise became troublesome, with hisses, whistles and loud static. I purchased the Harley Benton PowerPlant ISO-5 Pro in an attempt to eliminate the noise, but to my surprise, it only made things worse. The noise levels increased three to four times compared to the daisy chain system I was previously using. I then decided to invest in several additional Joyo noise blockers. In my particular setup, this turned out to be the best solution.

Disappointing performance, misleading description
Electroblues 03.02.2024
Beware!
These power supplies are NOT properly, fully isolated, the grounds are all connected together. The description does not mention this or make it clear, it is misleading as to what exactly the level of isolation actually is. Seeing as 'ground loop' issues are a common form of pedalboard noise you need to be aware of this.
I finally located the source of noise from my Ampero One (killer pedal for the price) making the pedalboard unusable.... yes, it is the ISO-5 pro. When I replaced the ISO-5 500mA output into the Ampero with the supplied Hotone power supply all went quiet and problem resolved (due to breaking the ground loops the ISO-5 introduces.
Since the whole point of using a power supply box was to reduce power cabling this is a retrograde step. Going to buy a Caline CP-202 which has 'True' isolated and independent outputs (no connected grounds). Disappointing for a Thomann product, which I'm going to have to skip as useless. Well made but doesn't do the job. Expected better from you.

adds noise
Sergei V 09.11.2022
Funny, as this thing should solve the noise issue, but actually it adds a significant noise with its original power supply. With a more expensive power supply, that noise is absent. But there is another problem - often there is still some loop created with some combinations of pedals so that the noise appears. Even if all pedals in the chain are analog. And if I just use a daisy chain, my board is less noisy :)

Small and nice design, but noisy
Daniel Cherney 30.04.2023
I was happy with this PSU, but my Violet Vibe was really noisy with this unit. Just can't stand it.

PROS:
+ slim design

CONS:
- noisy with some pedals, only works well with simple drives
