HO - DCC I am collecting all the information I can on wiring the Tortoises (about 12 of them) to the switch panels. RS has the so called heavy duty DPDT switches (10A) I think with the large padels on them that I like. They are also cheaper than the micro DPDT. Are these ok to use on the switch panels to control the Tortoises? Also what is the heaviest wire I can run from the toggles to the Tortoises? I like using the heavest wire I can use. <br /> <br />Can I also run a Bus from the DC Power pac to each switch panel and then have feeders off that to power each toggle? and what size wire should I use for the bus and what size feeder wires? <br /> <br />Hope I am not boring anyone! I am sure this question has been asked many times! <br /> <br />Thanks for your help! DON (River Rat Juction RR)
