I've scoured the interwebs and found nothing on this: Has anyone actually tried the Vapor Trail at 18V? If so:
1) What effect does it actually have, as compared to 9V? (I know for many pedals that can accept 18V, they advertise "more headroom", but I've never understood what that actually means.)
2) Can you power it with a Voodoo Lab Power Pedal 2+ via the Voodoo Lab voltage doubler adapter? In every photo I've seen, the end of the adapter that goes into the pedal, while labeled as a 2.1 mm plug jack, actually looks like the male side and thus not compatible with the pedal receptacle.
3) Is it really a recommended option? Many of the sales pages state that, while it will accept 18V, that 9V is preferred...which makes me wonder if this is just a sales pitch for players who are running an 18V/24V system.
I'm not looking for a sales pitch on the pedal; I already own it and love it. Just wondering if it's worth trying the 18V option, now that I've ended my relationship with 9V batteries by getting my first pedalboard and power supply.
