Hi folks,
I was messing about today, couldn't really get focused on anything, and so measured the rail voltage on my little "Thomas&Friends" layout.
This is being powered by the Bachmann EZ-command, the power supply states an output of 16vAC.
I measured this at 17.8 volts, so a little out there then!
The rail voltage was 20v!
It's taken me ages to find the post that Richard made about using diodes to lower the voltage, these are now on order!
I reckon that rail voltage maybe a little on the high side for N-gauge models!
Cheers
