The EH ManModeratorQuote:it says in the description that it is tip positive
You’re correct. This one should work at least as well as the vintage EH 18v adapters.
The EH ManModeratorQuote:Quote:Quote:so is there any chance of it frying my mistress with the 18v wire included and if so then what else can I use???Only if you have polarity backwards. Check it with a multimeter and make sure the tip is positive.
what if the tip is positive and the rod inside the tip is negative???
Then cut the wires and reattach them swapped around.
The EH ManModeratorQuote:Hard to tell the polarity from the pic, but it looks correct. If so, this would work fine.

The EH ManModeratorAn excellent guide and one that should be stickied. Thanks, Ned!
The EH ManModeratorQuote:i broke 100 the other week. i have a problem.The only problem you should be having is the one of storage.
The EH ManModeratorAs do I…perhaps too much.
The EH ManModeratorQuote:I cant find an EHX US18DC-500 adapter so what can substitute it??? what about the dc power brick to go with it and my other effects?The Power Brick has 3 18vdc outputs so as long as you have a cable for it, you’ll be good.
The EH ManModeratorQuote:what about the ehx 24v adapter that can be used with the deluxe http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/ElectroHarmonix-24V-Power-Supply?sku=336051That works fine for the new Deluxe Electric Mistress but not for the vintage unit.
The EH ManModeratorQuote:could a regular dunlop 18v adapter work???Checked their site but didn’t see any 18v models w/ a plug, only barrel connectors. You could use one if you swapped the connector.
The EH ManModeratorYou’ll need an 18vdc adapter w/ a 3.5mm plug, tip positive. 100mA is plenty of current. You could also use the EHX US18DC-500.
The EH ManModeratorDoes the LED switch on/off when you step on the footswitch? The LED is part of the switching circuit. If it’s operating normally I’d have to say there’s a bad FET on the switching.
The EH ManModeratorYou’ll have to buy a new or used one from outside the UK.
The EH dealer catalog says of the russian Big Muff: “Not available in Rohs – No Shipments to EU”
The EH ManModeratorQuote:Does anyone have any information on this thing? I contacted EHX and they tried to find a manual for me but had no luck. There is a sticker on the back that says it was manufactured in January 1984.
ThanksI might have a manual in my files. I’ll check and let you know.

The EH ManModeratorTry to find one of these Tube Drivers, circa 1979.
