Woodland plug and play vehicles.
I model 1938 and these vehicles are 50's but I figure it would be overlooked when they are lighted!
I also bought two trucks as I figure they would be 'less noticeable' as out of date.
One can buy their power source or use a DC power pack so I used one I got cheap at a train show.
No input plug for the 'light hub' assembly so I just soldered the wires to the two prongs.
I bought the 'light hub' that comes with two LED's. They are mounted on a large (for HO scale) 3/8" square board, which would be good for building interiors.
I used the 12 volts output into the 'light hub' assembly and checked the output voltage to make sure no 'screw ups' as LED's don't last long when over powered!
I'm guessing you could hook the vehicles directly to a power pack but I bought the 'light hub' since each output has a variable dial on it to control voltage.
What you get in the vehicle pack. Besides the vehicle, some very long thin wires connected to the vehicle and a 'linker' plug that connects the vehicle to the 'light hub'.
Final results.
The variable dials on the 'light hub' have a large range but the current adjustment from low to high is only about a 1/4 turn of the dial. Don't know but this range could be larger for a different power source.
Pretty cool.
They list for $30 but can be bought for around $23.
