V4 The Kraken is a two-channel pedal preamp that delivers genuine all-valve overdrive. Use it straight into the front of your amp or recording interface, or alternatively use it in conjunction with your amp's FX loop to bypass the front end of your existing amp entirely for a whole new sound experience. This is definitely no 'ordinary' overdrive pedal!

All-valve signal path

1 x EC900 and 3 x CV4014 valves running at high plate voltage. These are the first pedal-format guitar preamps to feature four valves and an all-valve signal path. This is no 'ordinary' overdrive pedal! 

Two Channels

Just like its namesake amp, Gain 1 is a slightly looser more 'vintage' British-inspired gain sound. Gain 2 is tighter in the bass with a more cutting midrange character and, of course, more drive.  

 

Remote Switching

The TRS jack gives you option of switching the pedal remotely. You can control on/off and also channel 1/2 with either a separate two-button latching footswitch or via a modern programmable switching unit. This means you can have the V4 Series Pedal Preamp off the floor and out of harm's way.

Two ways to connect

We recommend 'Amp Through Mode' for full functionality where you can choose to use your amp's own front end, or the V4 Preamp via the amp effects loop. To use it as a 'normal' pedal or if you don't have an effects loop, use 'Standalone' mode.

Bright Switch

Bright is a global tone control that optimises the V4 Pedal Preamp for what you're plugging into. Amp effects loops, inputs, recording devices and so on all differ greatly, so just choose the setting that sounds best to your ears. Don't worry if other settings sound 'bad'. It all depends what you're playing through!

Live, home & studio

Put it on your pedalboard, on top of your amp or on your desktop. It's particularly good for fly dates, or other situations when you're not using your own amp. Just hit the FX loop return of whatever you're using and feel right at home in no time. 

Three-Band EQ

Powerful bass, middle and treble controls. These also have a significant effect on the gain character and drive levels – just like in any valve guitar amp.

Perfect for every day use
The Wincar Magnetic Wireless Phone Mount and Charger is a thoughtfully designed accessory tailored for Toyota 4Runner models from 2010 to the present, and it also fits well with other vehicles using a 17mm ball mount base. The package includes a sturdy mount, a 15W magnetic wireless charger, a charging cable, and two steel rings. These steel rings are particularly useful for those who do not own a MagSafe-compatible phone or case, ensuring broader compatibility.  I specifically purchased this charger and holder to use with my existing 17mm ball mount base, which I found challenging to match with most other products—especially for my Lexus GX460. While there are many phone holders on the market, very few offer the dual functionality of both MagSafe mounting and wireless charging in one unit. This all-in-one solution eliminates the need for multiple accessories, but it’s important to note that the charger /mount  require a power connection to operate.  In terms of performance, the Wincar mount and charger deliver impressively. When connected to a reliable USB-C charging source or a USB-C cigarette lighter adapter, the magnetic grip is strong, keeping the phone securely in place even during bumpy rides. The wireless charging is efficient, providing a reasonably fast charge without overheating or lag. The magnetic force is particularly robust, ensuring that the phone remains stable and aligned for optimal charging.  Overall, this mount and charger combination offers a seamless, convenient experience for anyone seeking a reliable phone holder and charger for their vehicle. For my needs, it has proven to be both practical and effective.

A Solid Mount with Minor Imperfections
This MagSafe mount is a fantastic addition to my 2024 4Runner, offering a nearly factory-fit look. Installation was straightforward, though it required a bit of nerve. I was worried the clips attaching to the AC vent would snap, but with firm, steady pressure, they clicked securely into place without any issue. The result is a very stable platform for my phone. Functionally, it performs exactly as hoped. It supports fast charging when paired with a capable cigarette port adapter, and the magnetic connection is surprisingly strong. It holds my heavy S25 Ultra securely during daily commutes, and the inclusion of two metal rings for non-MagSafe cases is a thoughtful touch. I haven't tested its limits on a bumpy off-road trail, but for normal driving, it’s perfect. My only two critiques are minor but worth noting. With the phone in place, it completely blocks the hazard light button. A slight inconvenience. Additionally, I wish the mount's color matched the silver trim around the infotainment system for a more seamless look. Despite these small flaws, it's an excellent, clean mounting solution that I would recommend to other 4Runner owners.

Five Stars — Finally Got My Charger Back!
Color: Black, Color: Black
I bought this 3-in-1 wireless charging station as a gift for my girlfriend so she would finally stop stealing mine — and let me tell you, it worked. She loves it, her devices love it, and I love not having to play “Where’s my charger?” every night like it’s some kind of relationship scavenger hunt. Pros: • MagSafe is strong — Her phone snaps on like it’s reconnecting with its soulmate. • Charges iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all at once — AKA: no more tangled octopus of cables on the nightstand. • Looks clean and modern — Her side of the room instantly leveled up in aesthetics. • Fast charging — She swears her phone charges “faster than her attitude in the morning,” her words not mine. Cons: • Now she judges my setup — Apparently I’m the one with the “messy” charger now. • Might make you buy a second one — Because the moment you try to use hers, she suddenly remembers boundaries. Overall, great gift, works perfectly, and saved my sanity. Would 100% buy again — but I don’t have to, because she finally stopped borrowing mine!

Fantastic charger!!
Color: Black
Bought two of these for my house due to a recommendation from my daughter. Immediately fell in love with them! They are exactly as described, very well made and look great! They’re not too big and don’t take up too much room. The magnet is VERY strong! I was worried it wouldn’t work with my phone case on, but it did! I need to mention though that I have an iPhone case specifically designed for the MagSafe technology, I do not know if it works with regular cases. Highly recommended!
