I don't know really...These things happen. I use a simple power adapter/supply that came with my BCB-60 boss pedalboard - so yes the supply itself is a little isolated from other stuff. I did have my pedals covered in small quantities of beer...Maybe you could make some cover for it that you will "install" during gigs to protect it from liquids...Generally you won't get large quantities spilled in those "special" situations...If its feels comfortable for you to place power supply on the pedalboard itself then I think its worth the risk...

Selling wouldn't be practical. Mount it on top and just cover it with plastic nylon material if you are considering it a risk on a gig. Audience won't even notice it

I think if you have some tools and screws you can very easily attach the Fuel Tank to the bottom of the pedalboard. If it is metal material just drill the holes for mounting, and mount the thing under the pedals. You don't need 100e for that, just some 5-10e for tool costs.

It`s something similar I`m planning I assume the fuel tank will be more than good enough to cover my needs, so I`ll stick to modify-the-board plan for now. I will post pics tomorrow about how it ended Pic would be nice as I'm not sure I understand your current pedalboard arrangement. Generally try to with simplest solution that works for you, even if the thing is mounted on top of the pedalboard... -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Here are some pictures, I hope this is the pedalboard in question:
Here's the picture with the Voodoo Lab installed. Zakk can confirm if this is how it supposed to look like: Here's a nice solution with plastic connectors and one version of Fuel Tank (they can be bought in any tool store, or auto store). No drilling required. here's another one. This time it's sticky tape on both sides I think (not sure): -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
