All Shourt Line Tiffany Lamp Fixtures

Our new low cost drop 3 volt drop ceiling boards and Tiffany Opal Lamp Fixtures require an SL LED Controller and allow parallel LED wiring and dim from 1 to 300 LEDs. This makes it possible to both power and dim the lighting in multiple cars, so adding and removing cars from your passenger train is as simple as pluging and unpluging your cars power connectors, no adjustments are required. SL LED Controllers are also short cirucit protected in case of wiring mistakes.

How to choose an SL LED Controller

Use the weatherproof SL 8552403 LED controller for battery, DC, AC or DCC power when mounting to the bottom, or exterior of a car or tackside.

SL lighting board shown above not included with power buffer - light dozens of cars with one SL Precision Train Throttle & LED controller even without track power!

SL-6102104 Mini Gold Cap Buffer

Features:

Easy install - Works with any LED SL analog lighting board.

  • Powers 16 LEDs over 4 minutes, 32 LEDs over 2 minutes, 64 leds over 1 minutes or 128 LEDs over 30 seconds!
  • Automatic charging from track power at 400ma max.
  • Includes two skins; shipping crate and pizza cart for placement in cargo area or passenger areas
  • Superior charge/discharge cycles; over 10,000 X greater than battery, over 1000 X greater than capacitor device

What is a Super Capacitor?

Gold Cap capacitors a new type of device that are actually are a cross between a capacitor and storage battery. Like a battery they have extremely large power storage capacity but unlike rechargeable batteries have no 'memory' and feature nearly unlimited charge/discharge cycles. In addition they have very large storage capacity for their size and can discharge up to 3 amps of current.

SL-6102104 Mini Gold Cap Buffer 2.5 Farad 10.7 Volt - UPS for analog train LED lights

Easy Install: Connect power in cable to track power and output wires to LED lighting board(s)


Buffer to Track Power Wiring Instructions: Hook up the center two wires to a source of track power - polarity is not important - 400ma max current draw for buffer + LED current (loco power plug, wheel power pickups or ball bearing wheels with power pickup)

Buffer to LED board Wiring Instructions: Hook up the output wires to your LED boards DC inputs being careful to observe polarity. Buffer outside cables are output power; negative power wire is ribbed, Positive power wire is smooth. (Shourt Line SL 8108214 8 LED drop ceiling lighting fixture for passenger car shown above)


Wiring instructions for additional LED boards: Hook up additional LED boards DC inputs to the Negative and Positive input of each lighting board's AC bridge. Note that the positive side of the bridge is connected to the IC
