Hello! And first of all sorry as I'm sure posts like this have been posted on here too many times... But, I have searched the internet far and near and I haven't found anything that is truly helpful.
My knowledge of power for pedals is shockingly dreadful, so I was hoping someone could help me on here.
I have 6 pedals as of yet - Boss RC300, Boss NS 2, Boss LS 2, Marshall Echohead, Marshall Regenerator & Marshall Reflector. All of them are 9V, I understand that, however the pedal's Milliamps confuse me. I want to know what the right PSU for me is. I was looking at the T-Rex FuelTank Junior but again, the Milliamps tripped me up.
Thank you guys for having to deal with another numpty like me!

Here's some rules:
Google suggests the RC-300 draws 320mA, so the Fuel Tank Jr won't be suitable since it gives a maximum of 120mA per outlet. The Truetone One Spot PRO CS-7 isn't a huge amount more money and has more than enough power. There are a lot of options when you start to get to that sort of money though, so do some research armed with the info above.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
If you want to power everything from a single supply, though, you'll need something like the CS-7 mentioned above.
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
The most important things to get right are the voltage and polarity. Get this wrong and things go pop. So check voltage/polarity requirement first and current draw second.
