eBay: 253412786388, $3.81 shipped free.
I discovered the 4 relay version of these a few years ago.
for trains, I've set them up to:
- trigger sound in my sound car designs
- trigger a helicopter car to launch anywhere on the layout
- trigger a bump n go trolley to make it work "magically" with kids
- trigger accessories on the layout
non train? I use 'em for:
cheap garage door remote
car power door lock additional transmitters
etc.
On eBay, one of the sellers has a 2 relay unit that is a bit better....it can be powered with 12-24v DC or AC.... that makes 'em O gauge powered with no additional electronics!
