Hello, Most of the LGB locos use the Seuthe smoke generators and I have a few. The smoke fluid I use is the Mega Steam and it comes in different scents which is nice around the holidays with their Christmas Tree, Cinnamon, Root Beer, Pine and a whole bunch of other scents. They are a great little generator though.
Hello, I've heard that the smoke generator goes up to 80°C and I'm quite afraid that it's going to melt my chimney, is it ok to use it with a plastic chimney? Great video! Love your channel!
Yes it will. There are different models of the generators, some of them safe for plastic bodies. Please check our online store www.dcctrain.com/shop/category.aspx?catid=301 if it is not in stoke, let us know we can get it.
Looks great! I have a few questions about the smoke units. Firstly, how many drops would you say to put in? Does it vary between different smoke units? Secondly, how long does each refill last? I'm just getting into putting smoke units in my models and have just purchased a seuthe 22 smoke unit. Thanks!
Thanks. 6-10 drops from the applicator it depends on the unit. If the voltage correct can smoke for 5 min. When apply to the 22 make sure to avoid air bubble.
DCCTRAIN thanks! Yeah I’ll have to get one of those applicators, do you know if it can be bought by itself or do you need to purchase a 10ml bottle of smoke fluid?
Hey! Great Video. I do not have any Locos that have smoke yet but want to incorporate on my layout for fires. Which one of the Seuth you think might work best. Possibly hooking it up to some stationary decoder! Thanks for the cool video.
Thank you for this video. It is really great! Please, I have one question. Is it clean? I didn't want to smoke on my model railway, because it was dirty for my layout. But now, it is another system, is it clean smoke? Thank you.
Hello, I have a BR 78 507 from Märklin, the new model from 2021, and yesterday I installed the smoke generator (Märklin 72270). Immediately after the assembly, I put in the generator the right amount of smoke liquid with a syringe and the smoke generator started working, but it made a crackling sound, a loud crackle. I hypothesized there might be some air bubbles creating this effect, but the other times I started the generator (always trying to put the syringe needle at the bottom of the generator ampoule to avoid bubbles) there was this problem anyway. In all the videos I have seen with generators installed in Märklin models the generator was quiet, in my case its noise also covers the sounds of my digital locomotive. That's why I got a little worried. What do you think I can do to solve this? Try a dropper? Could there be some problem with the generator?
It looks like the generator has issue. They make some crackling sound in first 10 seconds, but after they usually make puffing sound. What is your Digital system?
If the smoke unit is connected to the track then, yes. It can be connected to the DCC decoder function output then can be controlled with the DCC system.
It is possible but I don’t know how, if you do a quick search on RU-vid you can probably find a tutorial or something. A RU-vidr called the train modeller has bachmann thomas and all his friends with this generator
Mr. Crazy Russian, You say no one makes ho smoke unit with fan for ho scale in aftermarket. I have researched this and have come to the same conclusion. Broadway limited has one they use. Seems good ,but where do they get it?Is it their own make? Is it patented and this the reason why it is not made in aftermarket. I like Seuthe ,but they were designed way before the new dcc technology and to have them be controlled by a dcc decoder the current to operate them needs to be below 100MA hot operation.Any Ideas or maybe you know if one will be available to purchase that a Suethe can be used with?
All sync stuffs smoke generators are proprietary and patented. I'm not seeing in the future if somebody is coming with the unit because first is patent issues, second, there is no market for it, just my 2 cents.
@@dcctrain Thanks I was just wondering I’ve recently gotten a prr s2 it’s the version with the two rectangle smokestacks and I was just thinking it would look better to have two smoke units
You're wrong there dude, Seuthe smoke fluid works fine with every other smoke generator also. I know, because i have other brands also ! So kindly give the correct info !
Nice thing, but please do not flash it, riding real transit. I was beaten up for this. Ребята, дымок вещь классная, но когда Вы в транспорте едете, не показываейте это людям. Я за такие игры чуть в тюрьму американскую не сел, и чуть не последовал за легендарным Михаилом Исаевичем Таничем.
