How many pedals to power

Hi people,

I have had a hunt but can't find a definative answer...

I run my pedals off my Diago power station, but as I don't want to overload the power supply. I have just invested in some more pedals, but before I power it all up when they arrive is this safe...

Boss TU2
Boss CEB3
Boss BF2B
Boss DD3
Proco Turbo Rat
EMMA Discumbobulator
EHX Bass Micro Synth - With gigrig virtual battery
EHX Bass Blogger - With gigrig virtual battery
4 loops/switches (Which I belive only uses the power for the LED).

That's 12 pedals, running 1 daisy chain into the other. According to what the daisy chain says it will run, and my limited understanding, it seems it can run about 30 average Boss pedals... Am I wrong?

I also intend to add a EQ pedal soon, making 13, meaning I will need to run the diago into 3 daisy chains to keep it to 1 power supply... Is this fine?

Sorry if this has been covered a million times...

Shep

Look at my pedalboard in the thread you bought the loops from. Everything in that except the Rolls SX21 (own power supply) Lehle P-split (passive) and Whammy (own power supply) are powered off one Diago Power Station.

You can buy an adapter for them to run with a 9v power supply. You can't use a regular daisychain cable. I'm not sure they fit. But yeah, if you do a google search, you should be able to find them. Diago make them (its their 'green adapter'), but you can get them cheaper.
