Madbean Pedals
Madbean power board (Road Rage) was first was purchased to be combined with JMKPCBs Testing Rig. Recognized need for 12v power and bought more for a total of 15 in case additional power needs arose. Will keep extra on hand to make 12v and 15v power supplies as necessary. I screwed up and bought the ProtoRig when I needed the ProtoRig Jr. I should be using the ZY-204 Breadboard I have, not the ProtoRig. ProtoRigJr. + the RRBB makes the ZY-204 way more valuable. Unclear what I need, enclosure-wise for Strober and sProbe.
