Airwire with track power
Posted by StephanieY on Thursday, September 8, 2005 10:07 PM
Has anyone tried this? I know it is designed for battery but, I am just getting started and am not sure I want to go to battery power yet.

I was intrerested in the system and was told that it is strictly set up for battery.
Not for me.
You could check further if some way it could be used with track power.

The AirWire900 Wireless DCC system is for battery power only, which I find to be a big advantage because I never have to worry about cleaning the track after I run my live steamers. For me, battery power is the only way to go for outdoor use.
