Trigo Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Hi, Already have an elite, was thinking about adding a select as a walkabout what is the difference between a select R8213 and a select R8235 walkabout, is it just the cable and if so if I have a R8213, do I just buy the cable to turn it into a walkabout? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonBigBoy Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Hi Trigo, my understanding is this. The Select is supplied with the power adapter hence more expensive. The walkabout (identical controller to the Select) has no separate power supply (so less expensive) and is tethered to the Elite using a Hornby R8266 cable. The Elite supplies the necessary power through this cable. Hope I got that right..... have yet to purchase myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poliss Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Posted by Hornby Customer Care a while ago. R8236 - This is a standard RJ12 Cable with 3 twisted pairs in the standard RJ12 configuration with a 6 conductor connector. This cable is only used in conjunction with the Booster unit. R8266 - This is actually an RJ11 Cable with 2 twisted pairs in a non standard configuration with a 4 conductor connector. This cable is only used in conjunction with the Walkabout unit. **However they both use the same plug socket shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
