As the number of pedals increases, the "problem" of delivering power to them gets closer.
I use the Ciocks baby to run the pedals, witch would be: Boss DS-2, Boss CE-5, BYOC Delay, BYOC 250+, BYOC Shredder and BYOC Wah.

You'll proberbly notice that there's 6 pedals, and the Ciocks baby can only deliver power to 5 pedals.

How do I find out, if I can take a split-cable to power the last pedal???

Add up the total current draw of all the pedals. If that amount doesn't exceed the amount of current the power supply can deliver you're good. Even if the total current draw is more than the power supply can deliver it won't be a problem unless you have all the pedals ON at the same time.

I have the current draw of most of the BYOC kits listed in the schematics sticky in the DIY Discussion forum. They should be at the bottom of each kit's parts list.

DUDE! BYOC pedals (almoste) don't use any power.
Thanks!
