How long you can power the pedals depends on what capacity battery you choose, natch... mine is on the small side at only 6,400mAh, because I wanted to go really small. You can get models from the same brand with varying capacity up to 20,000mAh or even more. I need to do some more testing, but I think it's safe to say that I can get at least 15 hours.

You can almost ignore the tuner, since you'll only be using it for a minute now and then; the Ditto may be more of a power suck, but you can research what it and the chorus draws (or measure it with a multimeter if you know more about that stuff than I do!)

Besides capacity, the other thing that matters with the batteries is output. I doubt your pedals would draw more than the 2 amps (2,000mA) that mine puts out, but if necessary you can get larger models with 3 or 4 amps.

Aloha!
The 'myvolts' adapter can only handle 350 mA, how do you get 2A out of the system?
