Tricks and tips on how I am setting up my lighting system. Watch out for over amping your power source! DO THE MATH! More lighting videos coming soon. HO scale train setup. 🙂
Great Video Neatly wired Modules make it a snap for installation. Yes that power transformer for the system certainly will get a LOT Of lights LIT but im glad to see you have the mA Calculations :)
I learned the hard way when I first started. Blew several street lights. Couldn't figure out why. Wrong wiring and over loading... :( Now I'm much more careful. Thanks for the comment! 😁
By splitter do you mean Port? If so, definitely. But if you mean actual splitters...I've never tried. But I'm not sure why you couldn't? Just don't exceed your amperage on the entire line. It adds up, especially when trying to double up your lights. Happy wiring! 🙂
I used two 12v power supplies for my entire layout. I just found it easier to keep things better controlled for a 1100mAmp output. Lots of counting and configuring. Thanks for the question.
I’m glad you made this video! I just got a whole bunch of those woodland ports, and I’ve never use those before I have a lot of Woodland lights still to hooked up so I bought a bunch more stuff but I always get so confused 🫤 so I am saving your video because this is going to help me when I get ready to do that thank you so much 😊
Very intriguing video! Every explained well and thoroughly. Amazing job! ❤
Nice job on the video!

Damn could spend a 1,000 just on lighting up the layout
Depending on the size of your layout. Yes Sir.
Can you conect a splitter on light hub to ligbt up 2 houses from 1 port?

Don't do it from an Expansion Hub!!! You'll fry both lights out!
12 volt DC or 16 volt DC power supply.

Need a bit more volume.
Thanks for the input!
