1966 power? hmmmm
i just scored a 66 from sickle (thanks again!) and have noticed that it only runs on battery.
the main page says a zinc battery sounds best.
is there a reason it only runs on battery's? would it be totally unwise to try and mod it to take power?
also, because it's runs off battery does that mean i need to unplug everytime i'm not using it?
all input is appreciated.

Not sure if its drawing the same current when not in use, but these are pretty simple circuits that don't carry anything like the energy demand you'd find in a delay or chorus, for example. I've had several fuzz pedals for years I've used regularly and not had to change batteries in them.
