    I’m aware of the audio pops. This is a processing fault between our end and CZcams. They aren’t on the original files and we can’t stop it happening from time to time. I’m really sorry.

      I didn't notice any audio pops. Maybe the CZcams transcoder has had a word with its manager in the meantime.

      Audio seems fine here too!

    4 out of 5 of my locos have Zen Black chips in them. I'm a great fan of the CV25 one step programming. The speed curves are not linear, so maybe showing the different values at higher speed settings would have been a better illustration. Great video.

    Thank you for this detailed review! Great demonstration with that little Pug... A great improvement on the Zen series.
    Love the idea of the semi-stay alive - analogy - puts your PC just to sleep instead of rebooting it on a power cut.
    Plug-on stay alives, brilliant idea! And the 8-21pin "multimodal" chip, very interesting.

    They look a great product especially when I have limited knowledge on fitting them.

    Hello Jenny I wonder if you can help. I have a few Heljan Class 86's that I would like to fit cab lighting too and my choice of cab lighting is by Illuminated Models, can you show me the best way of fitting these to the class 86/0 and 86/4 models as I've asked illuminated models for their help in fitting their product in these locos but have had no reply or help from them so I'd be very grateful for any help or assistance you can give. I'm not technically OK with electronics so if your able to show me rather than tell me that would be much better, I have Zen Black 21 pin decoders, thanks very much. Chris.

    I have a Bachmann 31-168A which has a 6-pin DCC socket. Does this mean that I can only use the Zen Blue+Decoder?

    Thanks for the review. Would like to try one of theses decoders in one of the new Hornby Terriers to see if it copes with the points on my layout.
    My problem would be which one to chose?
    We do seem to be spoilt for choice and I'm asking is that a good thing for the novice?

  • @mikeatpudhamjunction2323

    is the blue + decoder an n gauge one?

  • @IronHorseRailways
    @IronHorseRailways Před 3 lety

    New stuff looks better, I actually have one of the older "brown out" decoders sat in a box and it DOES refer to it as a "stay alive" on the packaging.
    I can confirm that it does absolutely NOTHING for improving loco Running, spec of dirt of point work. Just doesn't do anything....
