    I currently have a:
    Boss Bass Overdrive (yeah I know, you don't have to tell me)
    and a Digitech Death Metal pedal.

    9 volts run out to fast and cost to much for me so I was wondering what is a good ac adapter for these pedals are. I will probably be getting some new pedals as well in the near future.

    A 1 spot would probably be my choice. You can get a daisy chain and power both pedals with the one 1 spot. You will also have plenty of 'ma' up your sleeve for future pedals too.

    Really anything heavy and regulated with enough mA output should do fine. Don't be cheap - shoddy power sources can cause excess noise and hum (I had this problem when I bought my first chain).

    A 1spot or Godlyke powerall would be a good investment if you plan on getting more boxes. If not just get a quality 9V from a music or electronics store

    +1 to the 1 spot - might die after a year of steady rocking though
