Reply to "Phasing Transformers"

  I haven't watched Marty's vid yet. I usually refer folks to Lionel's Youtube vid. I find Mike easy to follow and slightly entertaining as well. There is a graphic explaination of what happens when they aren't phased.

Because I'm simple........ what is the benefit of phasing?  

How about not feeding your track twice the voltage you expect for starters?

I learned to do this over the phone with Gramps as an elementry school kid,

Not hard, and very necessary if 2+ transformers share any common circuit.

Not a bad saftey precaution if they don't actually share a circuit either.
