    Boss TU-3 Tuner?

    I bought a new tuner pedal. Does that qualify as an effect pedal? Anyway it's got bright lights & extremely accurate so far. Does anyone know of a cable that will let you power just one one pedal off the TU-3? I know that there are daisy chains for 5 or 8 more pedals. I just need 1 more...
