Stay Alive Circuitry

TwinStar:
I emailed Tim asking for guidance on how to wire in the SoundTraxx CurrentKeeper to an LM-2S. He replied that he doesn't recommend such as it can cause problems. However, he is developing a native Stay Alive capability for RailPro.

KPack:
That's good news.  I figured he would do that at some point because so many people want it.  I'm curious as to how large it will end up being.  It seems the Soundtraxx and TCS units are rather large.  Trying to fit that in with everything else I have up inside a hood could prove very difficult.  However, I think the end result is worth the effort....to have trains that rarely, if ever, loose power would be awesome.  I don't have many problems with power loss, but when I do it annoys me.

TwinStar:
Hopefully the solution, capacitor or battery, comes in several sizes. I'm fortunate to roster mainly E units but cringe at the thought of my GP-7's😁.

TwinStar:
Has their been any updates from Ring on this?
