 | | 9V Speed Regulators
|
| Hi all, I have a mystery. I just got a 4564 which naturally comes with a speed regulator. It also came with a 120V transformer which will never get used. I wonder what happens when you plug it into a 240V power supply, No can't do that either power (...) (26 years ago, 19-Nov-98, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: 9v train motors at higher voltage
|
| (...) Heh, THAT sounds familiar to me :-) LEGO sold the sweeper-contacts in a servicepack (#703) and that was a cheap way to convert the battery operated train to 12V one. I never thought about the different motor types as a kid. Indeed, mine is (...) (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

| (...) My 4.5v motors are 30 years old and have been subjected to first 4.5v (of course) then 12v on a regular basis. They still work fine today though I have had them apart for oiling and re-bushing. I cannot think of a toy available that will take (...) (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

The flash changes the color due to the reflection, as well as the poor color digital (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

The Train motors have a little metal heat switch that breaks the current when it (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains)
