      I remember awhile back someone posted which power supply they bought online that worked with their spark amp and was wondering if anyone had bought one and what model it was. All of the ones I see aren't grounded. I'd ask PG for one but don't feel like waiting a week for them to respond, them asking for a video, waiting another week, and then getting the power supply in December.

        I bought the one recommended from Amazon: "Dtk 19V 4.74A 90W for Asus Toshiba Ac Adapter Laptop Computer Charger Notebook PC Power Cord Supply Source Plug Connector: 5.5 x 2.5mm" .

        So far its noisier than before. I'm going to mess with it some more. And test my wall outlook for a proper ground. Old house could just be a three prong sodket wired into a two wire system. We'll see tomorrow I hope.

          I bought the DTK power supply and the amp has 0 hum now. Even with single coils. I had a fair amount of hum before that especially with my tele which is shielded well.

            I bought the same one as Scottakam from Amazon. It is much quiter. The best test is to move the power supply block around the guitar pickups. The factory one creates huge humm and noice the replacment one from Amazom produces almost none.
