Very specific (probably stupid) PP2 question

So after taking some well intentioned advice from the forum I am investing in a iso power supply and I think the pedal power 2 is sufficient for my needs - I'm trying to read up on the various option and I just wanted to see if you fine peeps can lend me your infinite wisdom - I run a Cathedral and a Delaylab (both run at 9v 200ma) and I'm wondering if those can be run from the #5-6 (L6) outlets provided. It says 250ma max so I am pretty sure it'll work but I just wanted to ensure that those will actually work with these pedals - I'm using those EHX 200ma 9v adapters on both right now and I would really hate to have to keep using them because it's such a pain in my ass to have all these wall warts...

I'm sure the guy at the guitar shop could tell me this, but I often am distrustful of those guys and their desire to quickly wisk me out the door after taking my hard earned cash....

I ran my SMMH off the 5 and 6 outlets
Which i believe has the same power requirements as the cathedral

My brother uses a SMMH with the exact same adapter I use now

So I'm going to assume it's all good. I just like a clarification from an actual human, not a product description....

Cheers, thank you my friend!

i usually email voodoo labs when i'm afraid of frying a pedal or something

It'll work nicely.

Cathedral's current draw is 163mA, if ever you needed 250mA for another pedal with high current draw, you could even use a current doubler cable plugged into 2 of the 100mA isolated outputs to obtain 200mA.

Thank you friends... you have been most helpful!

Of course I asked and of course no one could tell me anything about the current draw.... but low and behold I got it home and all works the way it should!!!!

Yea, remember also the current supply may diminish slightly at operating temperatures or with age, but I wouldn't worry about it unless it becomes a problem.
