Reply to "Z-1000 with Z-Controller and CW-80 Waveforms"

Gunrunnerjohn, have you ever check out the waveform on a Z-4000? I'm going to try and get the club to purchase one. They are all hard core Lionel and would rather chew nails than buy anything from MTH except rolling stock. Right now they are using the 275w PW-ZW on the club layout which has fried the smoke units in three of my cabooses when running Legacy/TMCC. I thought one was going to burst into flames. I should have ran it at 16v, maybe even12v instead of 18v. I always check the voltage before I run trains. My friend who is a Lionel tech fixed them, but I only run them with my ZW-C at 14v to 16v now. I only use non-smoking cabooses on the club layout.
