A special circuit with a supercapacitor ensures consistently bright, flicker-free light even on dirty track and over short sections without power. You adjust the brightness steplessly with a potentiometer.<\/p>\n<p>Installation is easy: the current collection from the axle pickups is soldered to the solder pads \u2018Gl. links\u2019 (left rail) and \u2018Gl. rechts\u2019 (right rail), then the board is glued into the coach roof. In the 2-rail system, the left and right wheels each go to one pad; in the 3-rail system, all wheels go to \u2018Gl. links\u2019 and the centre pickup to \u2018Gl. rechts\u2019. The capacitor can sit in three positions to avoid roof rails or walls. At both ends there are buffered, separately dimmable connections for red tail light LEDs.<\/p>\n<p>The board fits, among others, n-coaches (\u2018Silberlinge\u2019), yl coaches (centre-entrance coaches), Am\/Bm coaches (express train\/InterCity\/Interregio) and Eurofima coaches. Please select the matching length when ordering.<\/p>\n<h3>What else you need<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>for coaches without their own current pickup: our <a href=\"\/en\/product\/radschleifer\/\">Axle Pickups<\/a><\/li>\n<li>for tail lighting: <a href=\"\/en\/product\/0603-smd-led-rot\/\">red 0603 SMD LEDs<\/a> or <a href=\"\/en\/product\/2mm-tower-led-rot\/\">red 2 mm tower LEDs<\/a><\/li>\n<li>for compartment coaches with separate corridor and compartment lighting: the <a href=\"\/en\/product\/beleuchtungsplatine-abteilwagen-303-cm\/\">Lighting Board for Compartment Coaches<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary>Does the lighting also work on analogue layouts?<\/summary>\n<p>Yes.
