I am finding out walwart (ac to dc adapters) voltages are way off as far as the DC output voltage they claim to provide. Is this true ? Are they reaaly off that much ?

I'm planning a new distribution panel and am looking for recommendations for AC & DC voltage gauges.

I happen to have some G gauge trains, and it would be nice to not have to invest in separate power supplies. The BridgeWerks transformer is primarily DC but has a 24 volt AC output. That's too much voltage for prewar and postwar trains, and there isn't a good throttle/controller available to handle and cap that much AC voltage.

In your second photo, I can clearly read "AC/DC Commander" on the green bottom board. This is an ERR product but it does not have cruise. You would need to replace the AC/DC Commander with a Cruise Commander to get constant speed cruise control.

Feb 2, 2018 · The other thread was closed before I could get under the table and measure it. I am using a regulated power supply at 4.5 Volts DC output. The ammeter shows about 0.7 amps dc. It varies a little with the sign blinking, but that's the maximum.

Wiring the motors in series is a good move no matter what. Honestly your best and only option to achieve any type of independent control would be to install an ERR AC/DC commander. (I wouldn't spend extra money for the Cruise Commander because in my experience, the inexpensive can motors in those Alcos are prone to cogging , and don't respond well to any …

Jan 3, 2024 · This building reminds me of the gym. When I go during the day, they're serenading the 70+ year olds with AC/DC music when they should probably be playing 50's/60's music. Seems a little modern and out of touch to me.

Feb 29, 2012 · The AC/DC LED can be hooked up either way with equal results. So either will work and you want someone to respond who has successfully installed the AC/DC and/or DC LED into a PS2 headlight. The dilemma is the AC/DC LED will probably be dimmer than the DC LED. That is, the AC/DC says it works from 7-19V while the DC from 6-12V.

Apr 11, 2024 · Many Lionel products (trains, engines, and action or sound cars) 18V AC is recommended maximum. Many accessories are 10-16V and some have specific requirements so ALWAYS read the manual. Again, some like the swing ride must have 16V AC, others that might be on the high side. My advice and rule for our club layout- never ever go over 19V to the …

Don’t mean to hijack this thread, but another about about TMCC. Will an Atlas TMCC equipped engine run ok with just a conventional transformer for track power? I only run conventional but see Atlas/TMCC engines available now and then.
