I use a T-Rex Fueltank Classic and I find it's great - fits my board nicely and has isolated outputs.

The "Power Bank" ones? I use those as I have a few pedals that don't like daisy chains. I pop them under the pedal board so the board is at an angle, useful if you have 2 (or more) rows of pedals.

I just stumbled across the Artec CPB-12
Image
CPB-12 is individual regulated and individual hum filtered 12-channel power supply. It has ten channels of 'max 100mA at 9V' - fixed voltage outputs, and two channels of 9V / 12V selectable with 'max 300mA'. Also it provide 4 bright LEDs for pedal board lighting. This easy- portable unit includes AC adaptor for power supply. AC adaptor included (AC to DC).
It uses an external 15V adapter(supplied) and is available from Thomann for €57/£46. OK, so it doesn't provide 300mA on all outputs like the Fuel Tank Chameleon but it looks like potentially good value for money if you have only a couple of thirsty pedals and want full isolation. Has anyone used it yet?

They run out of stock fairly regularly and take them off the site. Based on past experience they will be back when they get them in again.
