Rich models HO scale and posts this question for readers:
“I am considering a purchase of an inexpensive, Chinese monitor to see the outputs of my MRC Tech II 2400 as well as load required by my locomotives. The unit I like provides Voltage measurement range of DC 0-100V, Current measurement range of 0-10A and the Power supply needed is DC 7-12V
I assume the voltage and amps come off the power unit’s Variable DC outlets and the power supply needed for the monitor comes off the Non-variable DC. Are there other alternatives anyone can suggest? Thanks in advance.”
