So I am in process of finishing my live setup.

Line 6 Helix (owned)
Line 6 G50 pedal wireless (owned, sorta)
Mission Engineering L6 Expression Pedal(purchasing)
Digitech Drop (purchasing)
Digitech Freqout (purchasing)
MXR M222 Talkbox (purchasing)

I am looking to purchase a TrailerTrash board that will have a 1 male power jack, and 2 female power jacks on the left side of the board....but I need something to power the stuff onboard. I've never been a pedal guy, so I dont have experience with this and wanna do it right.

1) I know the Helix will power itself connected to the outgoing power plug
2) I think the Digitechs and Line 6 Wireless can power off individual outputs on the same the same power supply device.
3) the one that i'm worried about is the MXR as it needs a stronger draw.

TrailerTrash will wire up with the Voodoo Labs pedal powers, but someone recommended the Cioks 7, which looks very intriguing and maybe covers it all?

Or would I be better off having my power output with 3 pigtails under it to feed the Helix (seperately), MXR (seperately) and Cioks 7/Voodoo Labs (feeding Digitech's and L6 wireless)
 
I have the Cioks DC7 and it kicks all kinds of ass. Yes, the connectors are proprietary - possibly a negative for some folks but it comes with a ton of them in the box and powers both my HX Stomp and HX effects at the same time with a few other pedals to boot. I really like it.
 
I am a big fan of the Strymon Zuma and the Eventide PowerMAX. Both work wonderfully. I am building another board and this time decided to try the Cioks DC 10. Hopefully it arrives soon!
 
Another +1 for the Cioks DC7 or Eventide powermax (very very close to the DC7). The DC7 is nice in that the 24V output can power other expansion Cioks supplies like the cioks 4 and soon to be released cioks 8.
