Mini Effect Gizmo/Mastermind power with PP2+

Hi
I have a Mini Effect Gizmo and a Mastermind that I need to power with my voodoo labs pedal power 2 plus.
Each of these units requires 9v 200mA. So, as I understand it, I would need to feed 9v 400mA to the MEG in order to phantom power the Mastermind with a 7-pin midi cable.
However, the closest I can do with my PP2+ is 2 separate lines of 9v 250mA, or a single line of 9v 500mA.

So:
Can I separately power the MEG & mastermind with 9v 250mA each?
Can I power the MEG with 9v 500mA, phantom powering the mastermind?
 
You can do either, whichever is more convenient for you. (I would double check that running two PP2 outputs in parallel is safe, if not, powering the Mastermind and Mini Effect Gizmo with separate outputs would be best).

In any case, having a power supply that can supply more current than the device needs is not a problem.
