Here is a design from Jim Loftis in a USA Maintenance Car with the CR-1 Smart Charger and an 18.5V 5200mah Lithium-Ion Battery-Pack. Have fun Jim and thanks for the picture.

Here is a design that Tom Delehey had us install into two of his 50ft. box-cars.

Behind the side cargo door is DPDT (Run/Off/Charge) switch that delegates power to the engine or charges both batteries. Attached to the DC input is our Dual Smart Charging Circuit Board which charges to 12V or 14.4V NiCd or Nimh battery-packs, from our 2.5 amp wall wort.

From this view you can see Tom selected two 14.4V 5000mah Nimh battery-packs, giving Tom 30 plus volts to power both of his engines.

Here is a design from Mark Deckard; Mark has installed our New C-10 Carrier Board in a Aristocraft 45101 Double Door Box-Car. Mark say's, "I didn't need to trim the PC board to provide clearance with the shell mounting screws...the Aristo version provides a little more clearance than the AML version." Mark has also installed a Phoenix PB-9 Sound System, and he has also installed an additional battery next to the sound card. He say's, "this battery is used to keep the PB-9 powered for Diesel "powering down sounds" when the throttle setting on the Revolution is backed down to zero setting. Apparently the Revolution kills the voltage to the sound card when the throttle setting is set to zero and thereby cancels the diesel cool down and air compressor sounds phoenix built in into the program - the extra battery resolves this problem."

Mark is using the C-10 Carrier Board to power his Aristo RS-3, and this is Mark's second C-10 purchase...his first C-10 is powering an Aristo GP-40. Great pictures Mark, thanks for letting us show them.

Once again Mark Deckard has shown us his second C-10 Carrier Board design in a AML PS-1 Double-Door Box-Car, using a Phoenix PB-9 Sound System. Mark say's this is a new Aristo GP-40 that had a receiver socket built into the main PC board so he installed the reciever in the loco instead of the C-10. So far, he is very pleased with the performance of the C-10 & at this point, he think's it is likely he will completely abandon using track power. |
