		Re: The Bogota Railhead
(...) I missed this the first time around. Love the use of fleshies, and I love the dark orange. The trains aspect is especially gratifying. Well played, Keith! JOHN (14 years ago, 19-Jan-11, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)

		Re: What if 9V went away? (Was re: LTMA vs NMRA
Err...um...in some ways it is a tough question in other ways it is an easy question, and of course the answer is that it depends. What if 9v trains went away... If LEGO is discontinuing trains, shame on them, but I'll continue to build. After all, (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Yes, you are correct, Jonathan. It is a little trick I learned to (I thought) save bandwidth "theft". I've never heard of anyone not being able to see them. JOHN (17 years ago, 28-Nov-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

		Re: Power Functions infra-red RC protocol released!
(...) Either single pin modes allow to set each output to 1 (9V) or 0 (0V). (...) See the drive datasheet: (URL) can reach 1A peak, continuous value is lower (500-600mA) especially if both outputs are heavily loaded at the same time.

		Re: Power Functions infra-red RC protocol released!

If not, hopefully the new RC train system will be compatible. It also (...) (17 years ago, 25-Jan-08, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains, lugnet.robotics, FTX)

		Re: Power Function control with RCX and BrickOS
(...) Okay, thanks. I can get 'Single output Mode' to work now. 'Single pin Mode' may be working too, but I'm not sure what to expect from it. I would expect setting either C1 or C2 would set them to 9V and run a motor forwards or backwards. Setting (...)

		Re: LEGO 7996 and 9V
Jeffrey- Of course, there's the "easy" way: Simply use two motors, linked by a wire, and separated by enough distance to cover the non-conductive gap caused by using a 7996. We have tried this and it works fine (and also improves operation (...) (17 years ago, 10-Jan-08, to lugnet.trains)

IR is extremely mature technology, and can be done without and special hardware; very, very cheap, yet (within its limitations) fairly robust (especially LEGO implementation of it, (...)

		Re: LEGO 9V Train Communication II
(...) Bluetooth is indeed probably way too expensive and complex. Perhaps the costs would go down, but probably not enough to make this cost-effective. There are cheaper radio systems, like 804.15.4 (ZigBee) that would make more sense than Bluetooth (...) (17 years ago, 28-Dec-07, to lugnet.trains)
