MTH made a charger (wall wart) that had 2 cables coming from the charger: one barrel plug, the other the semi rectangular plug, for charging engines using standard AC outlets. I have used one ever since they came out with the product. If anyone has an answer to this, appreciated..........
Question: The wart has DC output of 10.5v 11mA for one outlet, and 3v 70 mA for the other. Over the years, I have charged an engine (or tender) with it, and sometimes, I charge both using both outlets.
Never thought about it, but am I running the risk of stressing the wart by charging two trains at the same time? I never noticed any directions that came with it, if any did, and can't find any now.
I'd rather not cause an early demise of the charger, not sure where I would find one, it is rather handy to have. An internet search, and also one here using mth dc charging unit and mth ac charging unit, seems to turn up many track power supplies and other answers NOT related.
Anyone who can shed any light would be appreciated. Maybe I am the only one who does not know the answer. Thanks, Greg
