Self Charging Battery Back-up
The special NiCad 7-cell 8.4v self-charging battery recharges continuously during
train operation and should last for up to five years. The battery is a dry battery
that should not leak or cause any damage to your engine. Depending upon when
your engine was built, it may need to be charged right out of the box. If engine
sounds seem distorted or garbled at low voltages or become silent when power
from the transformer is turned off, test the battery to deter mine whether it should
be recharged or replaced.
Test: Put the engine in neutral and
leave the track voltage at 10-12 volts
(high enough for the lights to shine
brightly) for 15 minutes.
Recharge: If the sounds are
improved at the end of the 15-minute
test charge, the battery charge has run
down and can be recharged. There
are a number of ways you can do this:
•
Leave the engine in neutral with track voltage at 10-12 volts for 6-7 hours so
the battery can fully recharge (if your engine has a smoke unit, be sure it is
turned off).
•
Use M.T.H.'s battery recharger (sold separately) that plugs into a wall outlet
and a special port under the engine to recharge the battery overnight without
leaving it on the track.
Replace: If the sounds are not improved at the end of the 15-minute test charge,
it is time to replace the battery. Available through M.T.H. Parts. A standard 9v
alkaline battery can be substituted until your replacement arrives, but since alkaline
batteries cannot be recharged, it will eventually wear down. Do NOT use a 6-cell
7.2v battery.
