I have a Athearn Genesis F unit that has less than 2 hours on it and already has two burned out bulbs. Although Athearn has promised to send me replacement bulbs, I wanted to know if others have had similar problems? I run them with a MRC tech-4 350 power pack that puts out 30VA and 18.5 VDC to the rails. Athearn suggested possibly adding some resistors but was no help in helping me figure out what size. I also plan to upgrade to DCC in the coming year and am unsure what to do about the lights then also. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Jeff
