PSX AR auto reversers
Posted by JRP on Tuesday, December 29, 2009 12:49 AM
Has anyone purchased and is currently using the PSX AR auto reverser from DCC Specialties? Let me know your opinions please. I currently have tried the Digitrax AR-1, but with poor results and am thinking of buying the PSX. Thanks JRP

I have a PS-REV, the earlier model.  It's been working perfectly for years.  There is no noticeable switching delay, because of the all-electronic circuitry.  Less expensive reversers sometimes use relays, which are much slower and more prone to eventual failure.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

 I use two of the PSX AR's and like them very much.  They seem to be bullet proff, are adjustable and so fast there is no perceptible power interruption.

I am a satisfied PSX-AR user, now just over three years.

Thanks everyone. You sold me. I have ordered one from Tony's Train Exchange. Will be anxious to connect it and try it out. JRP
