Bridgewerk and TE ?

Here's my questions ... <br /> <br />1. Will the TE work with the Bridgewerks power supply. I understand it goes between the power supply and the track. <br /> <br />Yes it will work with the TE <br /> <br />2. If the Bridgewerks power supply is set at less than max. IE: throttle set lower to keep amps down, will the TE work with it ok ??? <br /> <br />You do not keep amps down by having a lowered throttle you keep the voltage down (All G scale trains are voltage driven. The train draws the current (amps) power it needs at that voltage. You can contact Bridgewerks as they can answer how to adjust to work with TE. <br /> <br />3. Or, should I consider the Bridgewerks Mag 10RS, 10 amp, to keep the TE system safe, and rely on that to provide enough power ??? <br /> <br />The 15SR and 10SR operate the same way, only real difference is that the 15SR can supply up to 15 amps of power at 24 volts where the 10SR can supply up to 10 amps of power at 24 volts. (By the way, there is a larger number of amps available at lower voltage - the formula Volts X Amps (VA) tells how much poer is available for instance the 10SR is 240VA so at 10 volts there is 24 ampds of power, etc.) Mkae sure you know the VA rating of any power supply you purchase to know it's total available power. <br /> <br />Another thing with the Bridgewerks power supply is that it is highly filtered which will help your TE and trains run better longer. <br /> <br />Hope these answers help. <br />
