Hello!! I just bought second hand a pair of those active pickups and I admit I didn't think much at the time. Seller didn't understand anything about electronics and had just the pickups and their cable (maybe the guitar tech left installed the jack and maybe the pots?)
So....Can I keep my pots?I have 500k installed now. I tryed to find a wiring for a 3 way blade+ ahb1 set 1V 1T or a 2V 1T (but I prefer the first to make room for the battery under the second tone knob and maybe use the hole to place a rechargeable usb 9v battery) and I didn't found much...just with toggle switch. can somebody help?

thanks
 
you need to use 25k pots with the blackouts. wiring that up should be pretty simple but i dont have a diagram handy

I built a phantom power box for my active pickups. That way, I don't need to worry about finding room for batteries or changing batteries, and one box can power multiple guitars. All you need is a mono 1/4 jack, stereo 1/4 jack, two 9V battery clips, and a small box. A mono cable goes from the mono jack to the amplifier, and a stereo cable goes to the guitar. The ring on the stereo jack/cable provides power to the pickups.
