I found some OLD Lenz N decoders in my junk box the other day. I had forgotten that they were in two sections, wired together. and in those days, there was no 8- or 9- or 21-pin socket to take up more space.
so Ring could break the LM circuit into two smaller sections, and forgo the harness plug in favor of leads that are factory-soldered to the boards, use shrink wrap instead of a plastic housing, so it would increase the odds that the two smaller sections could be located in smaller locos.
atsfguy:
Separating the board into two linked pieces sounds like a great idea and would solve the space problem for those who like smaller diesels, including myself. I thought the present LM was already cased in heat shrink, judging by my own LMs. Am I wrong?
A smaller HC would be nice for those with smaller hands and us old guys. Not too certain just how much TR could shrink it, though. Perhaps simply including a loop for a neckstrap would solve the weight problem for some. I sometimes use a neckstrap on my RC transmitter to alleviate the weight penalty, especially as I age, and it does help. It also prevents droppage/breakage that can occur as our muscles weaken with time.
G8B4Life:
By heat shrink people mean heat shrink tubing as opposed to the hard case they come in now. Heat shrink tubing would reduce the size by nearly 1.0mm in width and height.
With a little redesign the HC could be made a little slimmer in the overall width; there is room to do it from memory (there was a website that had photo's of an opened up HC but the images are no longer available) but it would end up looking like an NCE hammerhead design then so I doubt Ring would got for it. If he did I'd like to see a programmable tactile button to the top left and right of the knob, this would be great for the horn.
