stinkboy:
Sounds like a ground loop...install a ground loop isolator...I can explain further if you need. I seriously doubt it's a power interference from the neon pedals...but are your signal wires close to it? Do the pedals have some sort of high voltage inverter (doubtful)? Try grounding it to the same place as your stereo system (that should eliminate ground loops, or get the isolator)...
