Larry I have this kit for lighting came in yesterday. I do have my lower level setup with Woodland Scenics Just Plug IT light system setup. Glad to know I can use them that helps me determine my lighting on the third level.
Great follow up video, thanks! I felt for you when you realised you’d have to cut the wires twice to get them through the baseboard. It is odd the DCCC online manual for the alpha mimic says 50mA and not 75mA but hopefully their circuitry is robust.
To be honest I have never had a problem with a solder joint like that so don’t consider it necessary. A gentle tug will usually indicate whether you have a solid connection.
Larry, I know that my question is unrelated to the topic of the video but I am trying to find out more about converting 5 pole motors to can motors. I have an older Athern diesel that I like. It has great weight and nice fly wheels. Can you recommend a good place to start? Thank you, Dennis
