Could I use this for model trains running on 0-22V AC and drawing up to 12 amps current?

I dont see why not. I am using on a 12 volt sustem for my sailboat. My battery bank is 880 amps

As long as the output is 12V amps do not matter. It's the 12V that is critical.

You could do it with a simple relay- but you have to check if this one is compatible with AC current, unless you want to use a DC circuit. Here's link diagrams to both http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_fuBrp5aqZDo/TTQ7KZeAXMI/AAAAAAAAAlU/G3XX2o_e77U/s1600/relay_wiring.jpg http://inspectapedia.com/heat/L4064B_Line_Voltage2.gif

It should have no problem if it draws less than 20 amps. I use my generator at times to run a similar unit and have power to spare on my camper. I think mine has a start up of 14 amps and settles in around 12 amps.

Its more the amps that would be the concern. It says it handles 20amps @ 120vac, so I would think as along as you stay under the 20amps you should be alright.

Yes you can. Each module pulls about 30mA, which makes the total current draw of 600mA which is less than 1Amp.

I don't see why not; It's a spring (mechanically) operated switch, so voltage is not a concern and the contacts are rated for 110 VAC @10 A, so 24 VDC should be no problem.

any 12 volt dc current is usable, weather it is from a battery or a transformer pack it does not know the difference - be careful to get the polarity correct...

I wouldn't recommend doing that. If you want a higher amp single battery charger, they make a 15amp one.

This is for N, HO, TT, & Z scales, which operate on DC voltage not AC voltage. The throttle on this is DC, while the AC is a constant voltage intended for accessories. If your locomotive operates exclusively on DC, then using this product for the throttle can damage your locomotive.

From the specifications: Maximum AC Current @108VAC - 13 Amps. If your voltage is higher the current will be lower.

The 12v input line is not regulated, thus it is limited by the power supply feeding the picopsu. I've used this in a number of setups that draw 20+ amps on the 12v line without a single problem years later. Now as for the 5v and 3.3v rails, that is another story.

You would need a 'Tripp Lite PR30 30-Amp DC Power Supply 120VAC Input to 13.8VDC Output' or something comparable to it to be able to run this unit from 120v AC house current. You'd be looking at spending another $200 or thereabouts. You'd be better off buying a small 120vAC powered air compressor instead, like a pancake compressor that go for $100 or thereabouts, that would greatly outperform this unit which was made to be used with a running motor 12v system.

Yes you can use this unit. Make sure you have it on at least a 25 amp breaker.

if you are running 2 100's already then you are either running series or parallel then just connect positive and negative this unit claims to be able to handle 30 amps and 150 volts, unfortunately the unit I got crapped out on day 3 it took some time but sainstore says they are sending me a new one hope the new on holds on.

No- the device is made for small motors, like kids toy cars, a few amps at most and 12 VDC.

Yes you can, a nice breeze, no it will not. A 12v 1A power adapter can supply up to 1 amp at 12 volts but normally supplies 12v at much less than 1 amp. 1 amp is the designed maximum before an internal fuse blows or the voltage drops below 12v. Your fan specs say 0.15A, so it should not pull more than that. Over time, as the bearing wears, it will get harder to turn, and will pull more than the rated amount, but it should fail completely before reaching a 1 amp power draw. Electric devices only pull the current (amps) they need to work. Power supply amp ratings are maximums. Device ratings are expected power draw.
