P-Henny Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 @DodgeNot only are those two examples of yours panel mounted and not inline. The inner pins are 2.1mm & 2.0mm respectively and not the 3.0mm or 3.1mm required to match the Hornby power supply plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I bought a couple of these plus more 6.3mm plugs to make a cat’o’9 tails power adapter. Not exact but close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clement Matchett Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I have been pondering this too, and may have misunderstood the situation, but;I already have a DCC controller for my 00 layout (Hornby Select…adequate, limited and a bit 20th Century).My new and second layout will be a reach to connect that controller, but I don’t want to use the cheap analogue controller which comes with the Scotsman set. It seems to have a built-in wasp’s nest!So I have bought a N18 decoder from Gaugemaster and plan to buy a second used Select on eBay, as a stop gap solution. Have a look at the Simon’s Shed channel for fitting this decoder. I hope to live long enough to see all this much-hyped TT120 stuff become available! It may be iffy!PeterModerator Edit: amended to remove banned language. R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishmanoz Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Dodge, while the connector size is now correct, again you have panel-mounted not inline (plug and socket each go on the end of a cable to join them). Clement, your arrangement will work and you could use the dongle to control non-BT decoders via the App if you use any HM7000 decoders. But you still have a 1 Amp limitation unless you upgrade the Select PSU to 4 Amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clement Matchett Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Thanks Fishman…Yes, I am aware of the current issues.But first, build your baseboard! The Scotsman is mostly still in its box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy,These are not for me, i was trying and failing with helping another member out.. I have connectors sorted for my power supplies. Of course nothing is tested yet...
