    My favorite is the 1-spot

    and to take 8 pedals:

    You can even find more or extend them for more.

    I have two of them because I'm running two different rigs now for different sounds and these can power a lot of pedals.
    I had a voodoo lab power station but I like these better.

    it puts out 1700 mA. Look at the bottom of your pedals and it'll say how many mAmps it draws. Add up the sum of all your pedals and if it's more than 1700, get two 1 spot.
    Overdrives don't draw much, but reverb pedals tend to draw a lot, but chances are, one of them will do your whole chain.
