Okay, this is awesome work, Philippe, to see the comparison of the new PF motor
vs the 9 volt motor. As an eight wider, I always lamented the underpowered 9
volt motor in its attempts to pull heavy, 8 wide consists. But it wasn’t such an
issue because one could always just add more motors. There certainly were,
however, diminished returns in terms of track voltage. We at the TCLTC used
souped up speed controllers, but that still didn’t solve the problem of
overheated, over-worked 9 volt motors.
Though I would never switch to the new track, I would consider retooling with
these superior motors.
I haven’t even checked to see if these are available yet on US SAH.
In any event, thanks for posting!
JOHN
