CIOKS is a cutting edge manufacturer of power supplies designed for guitar effect pedal boards. They are the smallest, lightest and most powerful in their class. Their DC 7 flagship model has seven outputs of 660 mA than can each be configured independently to 9v, 12v, 15v or 18v output settings. You are also able to expand the DC7 with either a C4e or C8e to add another 4 or 8 outlets. It also has a USB outlet and a power meter.

The new C1 CRUX is designed to power big digital pedals that require a lot of current by connecting it to the 24v expansion outlet on the DC7 and stepping down the voltage to 9v or 12v.

Their small size makes them suitable to mount underneath most pedal boards. Go to the logo/link on the home page for more information on their website.
