I'm modeling in code 100 track and  most of my track is Atlas flex track and turnouts.  I do have some ME flex track.  Probably not best to mix different MFG track together, but noticed to make curves it seems the ME flex track is better that Atlas flex track.  Due to room size I can't go with big broad curves, but between 24 and 30" would work.  Know those curves are somewhat tight for the bigger pieces of rolling stock.

Wondering if most people are using Atlas Flex track or other brands when it comes to laying out your curves?

All,

Happy Memorial Day and thank you to all of you who have or are who are currently serving.

I'm looking at  a 10 pack of Honeywell LED Strip Lights for my shop. I was wondering if anyone is using these for general model lighting in their layout room? Sam's Club has them on sale for $285 for the 10 pack and they are linkable. Apparently they cannot be flush mounted and the lens are clear, those are the only two negatives I can find at least as far a shop lighting is concerned.

The Micro Engineering site now just goes to a new domain site and my e-mails to them keep getting bounced back as un-deliverable. (?)  Something up ? It appears as though their domain / e-mail has expired.

Mark.

Hello,

Can I tie the grounds of switching power supplies together without causing problems?  I'm sure the loads (positive side) on each supply are not particularly well balanced at the moment.

I'm at the point of segregating LED lighting strips into areas.  I have three and may expand to four 12 volt 33 amp switching power supplies.  Wiring the control panel would become a lot easier if I could tie all the 12 volt grounds together.  I put a VOM between the grounds of two and got 40 volts and decided to ask questions.
