My 2 cents worth to solve the problem of dim lights: why not not try
using a plug-in transformer from one of the train sets?  Not only will
this support a large load of lights, but you will actually have complete
remote control over the whole light array and never needlessly drain
batteries. • <sniped bits>
<grin> The reason I didn't bother asking in BST would be because I'm not
actually interested enough to *pay* for one.

You might still ask. Offer to pay the shipping cost. Someone who has way to
many might just give you one. Of course if you think about the cost of
batteries, the $20ish that it would cost you for a controller would be well
worth it.

Sure, why not.  It can't hurt to ask, neh?

Is there anyone out there willing to give me a plug-in transformer?  I'll pay
shipping costs, either as cash, or as credit in my next parts sale.  Heck, if
someone steps up to bat, I'll offer them credit in my next sale, at whatever we
work out as fair.

Any altruists out there?
