Hello all. I bought two of the miller animated signs and was impressed with their looks. My question is would it be alright to leave them on all the time since I had to hide the batt. pack and switch inside the buildings? I coukld with some work put the switch under the layout. Does anyone else have these? Thanks Dave
I just installed one on top of a building for my modular layout, here’s a short video showing it in action: http://media.putfile.com/Animated-sign-demo
I don’t see why you couldn’t leave the signs on all of the time, it would just wear out the batteries. I wish the on-off switch on mine was on the opposite side of the circuit board from the wires so I could mount it so I could turn the unit on and off from the back. I made the roof removable, so I’ll just reach in and turn it on or off.
Neat signs!
Love the animation but wish they wouldn’t use punny names like I.C. Sparks.
But maybe that’s just me.
