A laptop or other regulated power supply would do. Make sure it's regulated though, most wall warts deliver higher voltages than they're supposed to, with a very shaky quality as well.

OK thanks for that. I'll ask around. That's actually what I thought.

Does anyone know what voltage it supplies ? It must be standard with these boards.

For anyone interested in the electronics side of the FFB2, Roland van Roy has an excellent guide up on simprojects.nl

The PSU voltage is 24 volts, as it turns out.

Can anyone give me a part number for the optical pots that are used in the MSFFB 2? What is the proper name of this type of potentiometer?

Thanks in advance.
