@Marty R I figured as much(and certainly hoped as much) when I was watching a YouTube video and someone said they were using the TIU variable channel to power switches(never heard of it, and thought it sounded like a waste of a channel).
The trackpowered turn-out part is extremely helpful. In my previous layout- i had one small portion where I transitioned to tubular track so I could insert an O/31 manual switch for what was a “stub siding” used for show. I always had goosignal on that layout, however, and want to keep it that way!
finally, per the manual, “The RealTrax switch operates in only 10 volts and 1.25 amps”.
Will keep you updated for when it’s up and working!
Forgive me if I seemed rambling or a bit incoherent. I injured my head and got a concussion earlier in the week(2nd in a year, 7th overall) so I am having some difficulty communicating talking grammar and especially typing.
