[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by trainwreck100</i> <br /><br />James and Smitty: Where do you get these Micro-Disconnects? That sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. My idea was to put a decoder in one car, and put something like these disconnects in between them, but the reed switch sounds like the way to go for that. <br /> <br />Greg <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by JPM335</i> <br /><br />Im also very interested in where you get micro disconnects. All my acela cars pick up power, if I link them all together electrically, no dirty track can stop me![:D] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I got mine from a bulk electronics store back in Jr. High. They are the same connectors that you find connecting the batteries to the reciever unit in Cordless Phones. However when I ran out. The store that I purchased them from had moved or gone out of business. (I don't know which) I have not had much luck finding them online. And Radio Shack looks at me like I am nuts. But I know that they have to be available some where. <br /> <br />If anyone can direct me to some online suppliers or know where these connectors can be located. I to would appreciate this info. <br /> <br />James
