Effect pedal output

Effect pedal output------Question for L112BX Please Put your question below------can this jack be used as an effects pedal output that has the 9v battery connected when jack is in and disconnected when removed

Hello @ricosuav57,

Welcome to the TechForum.

This Switchcraft type 13 may work for you application:

  • Mono output
  • Isolated normally open contact

If you look at the picture you can see the plastic isolation pad on one of the spring terminals.

The battery positive could be connected to the shunt terminal and the effects circuitry powered from the lifter spring terminal.

Happy soldering,

Aaron

P.S. Also consider the Switchcraft 113X.
