       wall pack plus transformer
       By: charon Date: December 12, 2017, 4:20 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       If I use my approximately 50 watt lionchief set wall pack and my
       CW80 80 watt transformer hooked up to two terminal tracks on my
       60 foot mainline loop will I have 130 watts of useable power to
       the track?  Any help will be appreciated.
       Thanks,
       Chuck

       Do NOT hook the 2 transformers up that way. The wattage will not
       add the way you think, and you will have no control over the
       trains.
       If you need more power, get a bigger wattage transformer.
