max DC power supply voltage

[evol2013love]

is there a maximum DC power supply voltage before damage might occur to a Moogerfooger pedal? If I wanted to use an external battery that might get as high as 13.8V @ full charge, would it be necessary to regulate that down to 9V, or can the Moogerfoogers internal circuitry handle that much overvoltage on the power supply?

the particular device in question is a 101 filter pedal.

It should be okay, but any excess voltage would dissipate as heat, which could reduce the lifetime of your pedal. The op amps in the 101 should go to 15 V no trouble. I think the manual states any power supply voltage from 9 to 15 V is okay (YYMV).

I hope you have a decent charge on your battery, because lovely warm analog electronics like Moog gear will use a bit more juice than your standard Boss pedal.

What do foogers sound like with dead batteries?
