Current Draw - Multiple Pedals in one enclosure

[RSKaudio]

Hey all,

Have been lurking for a bit and finally putting together my first build. I'm planning on a Delegate > Son of Ben > Zapper > Magnetron all mounted into this enclosure. I'm a bit concerned about the power draw of all the pedals and so far it seems to be 140ma based on the original pedals without the Zapper but I don't know if those numbers are the same. Any recommendations for where I can confirm that?

I think I may have space to mount a power supply internally and feed some of the circuits separately if there would be any advantage to that but would be happy to avoid it if possible.

Lastly, I'm also thinking of throwing an order reversal switch in between the Zapper and Magnetron since I figured those would be the most interesting ones to change around.

Thanks in advance!

First build ever? Or from this site?

From this site, I've wired up microphone pre-amps and have worked on electronic repairs before at recording studios.

I just blew my multimeter (non-pedal project) - once I get it working, I'll test the Zapper and the Magnetron. This would be excellent data for the future wiki, for sure!

Be sure to add 50% margin to cover pedal-to pedal variation and to give the power supply some headroom. I would advise against installing a power supply inside a pedal box because power supplies are noisy and pedals are noise-sensitive.
