SMOKE UNITS

Think you have been out in the fish house on the frozen lake too long and your brain is working slow.[:-^][(-D]

Actually, I’ve been basking in a Virginia blend laced with Latakia and Burley all weekend. It opens the mind and gets me thinking outside the box.

Hello Chief Eagles. Someone told me you may be able to help me out from another forum thread. I have a Lionel Mikado Jr. I had been running it in conventional with 2 full wave recitifers in series with a motor lead. It smoked nice at higher speeds and so so at medium speeds, hardly anything at slow speeds. I recently put in another making a total of 3 modified recitifiers. Now it smokes nice at lower speeds and really smokes at higher speeds. Do you think this is too many rectifiers? I don’t want to damage anything. I actually tried 4 and the outside of the smoke unit was hot enough to sizzle when I spit a tiny bit on it! Mayber you or someone else have done this and know what a usual amount to use is. I also put in pink insulation and use JT’s. I think the JT’s burns up too fast, seems I’m always adding. Thanks for any help!
