Self-Charging Battery Back-Up
The special NiCad 7-cell 8.4v self-charging battery in this engine improves
performance at any speed. It ensures that power to the sound system will
remain on during directional changes, or when traveling over dirty track or
switches. The self-charging battery system is automatically turned on or off
whenever track power is turned on or off.
