Thanks Stan. Just so you know, my question wasn't so much regarding how much power the brick would be putting out, it was whether or not the power feed in the cord from the brick to the IR Receiver could be run through a splitter of some sort in order to provide power to multiple IR Receivers. My plan is to have 2 separate physically separate loops of track on my ceiling layout, each with its own Brick/IR set up on either side of the room so IR signals are isolated.
However, after my test run this evening, it looks like that may not be possible and that I'll have to use the MTH power set up on only one of the loops (Track #1). With the well known limitations of the IR receivers, the "skillful" aiming is put to a challenge when one is looking up at the ceiling as compared to down on a table. The operation of a ceiling train basically locks your eyes and brain on the train more so than on a table layout and there are some blind spots when one is looking up. So instead of having the IR receiver on the opposite corner controlling Track #2, I'm going to have to have both IR receivers control the same track from different vantage points. For extra peace of mind I was thinking of placing IR receivers in all 4 corners of the room and having the two receivers on each side controlled by the same brick if possible. If that is not the case, and it is looking that way, then I'll just buy two extra bricks and power each IR Receiver the standard way.
