Keep Alive installation w/ Railpro

<< < (4/23) > >>

TwinStar:
Thanks Bill!

TwinStar:
I purchased a KA3 and a KA4 to check sizing and fitment before ordering the remainder for my fleet. I still operate mostly on top of DCC at Free-mo setups and eliminating the dirty track issues is priority number one.

CPRail:
Just to make sure I'm reading this correctly - if I install this bridge rectifier, I can add in a TCS Keep Alive module, and it'll play happily regardless of power input (DC or DCC)?

If that's the case, I'll be ordering the rectifiers ASAP!!

William Brillinger:
Ian, it's true, this solution is DC and DCC friendly.

I proposed this idea a long time ago but never acted on it.

I think I'm ready to proceed too. I'm done waiting for the Ring engineering version of this tech.

Alan:
Go for it Bill. Chance to make a little pocket change, eh? A resistor, a few supercaps, and a bridge. Sounds eminently doable on a kitchen table assembly line. Uuuu, good idea - encapsulate in black casting resin. Then you can stamp a PDC logo on it.
