Rack tuner vs. pedal tuner

Thanks for all the replies, brahs

Okay so according to what y'all told me I will be going for the pedal tuner, since I already am in the process of building a pedalboard. I decided on BOSS BCB-60 for pedalboard itself since it has a power source and space for 7 pedals (and I am going for like 6, 7 pedals tops)

For the tuner itself, it will most likely be a BOSS TU-3 or Korg Pitchblack. Naturally I will carry a clip-on as a backup too. I looked at those cool Peterson Strostomps but I do not have the budget for those unfortunately.
 
Guitar center had a sale on Snark pedal tuners years ago for $20 each.

I cleaned them out of the 5 they had in stock.

Been using them for years. Nice and bright, durable and accurate.

Have one in the gig bag, rehearsal space, lost one at a gig, even gave a few away.

Great purchase.
