Getting close enough to the time I need to make a decision with my layout under construction (which means likely sometime this decade
. Anyway, right now pretty much all my engines are conventional, eventually I hope to upgrade as many as I can to command control. My question is, with the powermasters, the new legacy ones are 360 w, the old TMCC ones are 135. My question is if I went with the TMCC powermasters (which I can get at a reasonable price) is having the 135 watt unit going to be a big liability? Frankly given the way I plan on using them I will be using 4 of them, and if people have found the tmcc unit to be underpowered, 4 legacy powermasters these days would be nearly the price of a ZW-L. I have two decent transformers (a ZW and a KW) that I can work with , and could get the legacy TMCC units at a relatively decent price, but if they are underpowered it makes no sense to get them. The other thing is I would expect as the layout becomes more command control oriented that they will get less and less usage, which is another factor, too. Obviously I have to get the legacy command system, too, but would in any case.
Thoughts from the folks on here?
