Show me your compact pedalboard setup

Pedalboard revision 1,457,891… I think this qualifies as “compact”…
I was rocking a Pedaltrain Junior Max or Classic 3 with a Helix LT and a few pedals/wireless… Too Big and stupid heavy.
I went to a Rockboard Duo 2.1 with a HX Stomp and a couple pedals… I was there for over a year, but ultimately it was too small for my needs.
I’ve decided to go back to the Pedaltrain Classic Junior… I feel like this is right about where I need to be, the HXS w/ the Midi Baby 3 is “almost” as powerful as the Helix LT (for my needs anyway), and it lets me have the wireless back on the board, along with my OG Blower Box…man I love that angry SOB.
I would love to offload the preamp duties from the Stomp and free up a little DSP, but I haven’t found a preamp/DI that I really gel with, I’m currently using the Noble clone in the Stomp and I LOVE it, but I have neither the funds or board space for the real deal…The search continues, I’ve been kicking around maybe trying the Mantle from Walrus, but man…that price…
Everything is powered by a Truetone CS7, except the Stomp, that’s powered by a Voodoo Lab PP X8…Overkill, I know, but neither supply was up to the whole task, and I had need of my board this week so…. A Cioks DC-7 with appropriate Stomp cables is on it’s way to me as we speak.
Here it is, it’s not as nice as some of the amazing stuff on here, but it gets all my jobs done well, with no complaints.

So, what happened was… 
Joyo is doing power supply + pedal bundles. The power supply was noisy and got returned but I kept the flanger, which sounds pretty great. And then needed company. But this had to be a cut-rate job. The pedals run on batteries and the board was free from my kitchen! Even has a convenient handle.

Anagram, Bridge 4, WiDi Jack, and a battery bank.
How long does that battery work? Been thinking about going that route, but currently using a canvas HP.
I used it at church with just the Anagram last weekend and leaving it on throughout the entire service, rehearsal before and all was about 3 hours total and I started at 35%. It was at 2% when I shut it down. That wasn’t constant, heavy use but it’s the most recent that I’ve used it. Heavy use with the Bridge 4, and turning through 60 or so pages of music… about 3 hours total use up half the battery.
I still set up the dual lock in the bottom to use my Cioks DC7 when I bring my Moog Messenger along to power everything. It’s an easy swap with that particular board.
That little Volhalo board is the business. I use that 14” guy as well. Glad to see it working well for someone else.
I haven’t even tested since I’m recovering from 3 surgeries finally next week I will test this, after many changes I settled for this in my small/compact pedal board
empress bass compressor into the anagram into the Neptunium, Widi jack so I can use the chocolate+ midi controller

Love the TONE on the COCA so swapped the JHS TW out for this. The TW is a great comp but can go on one of the boards with plenty of EQ. This one doesn’t really have that unless I’m using the CLEAN version of this with the REGAL. That with the steddi tube is the cheapest way to get THAT tone lol. Lb-100 with flats on this board has plenty of harmonics. 
Mine should be delivered today! Please keep us posted on your experience with it.
