Ok,? Help ! :)? ? ?I installed a generic transformer I had gotten from Lenox 2 years ago on my first LENi project - it fixed my other Leni.? ?I now have a happily buzzing transformer.? I still

That sounds reasonable MichaelC. It shouldn't even matter if the pins come out in different places, as long as they are for the same function. Some really old ones like Anton and another one I forgot

looking at the various CDV700 schematics, it looks like the T1 transformer (T2 in Victoreen) all do the same thing, same windings.? Therefore, the transformers should be functionally equivalent and

yes, a future rainy day project

sounds like a plan MichealC! Don't do anything drastic, save ot for another timeand fix it later after gaining more experience. Besides, it's alway better to have a workking one side by side when

so I got the 3 transformers I ordered on ebay. Winding 1-2 seems off on all the three - very high resistance.? ?I took one that looked the best and soldered wires to the leads so I could tack on to

I received 3 transformers from ebay, was out of town, and finally able to do basic check on them.? ?Seems all three of them are basically measuring very high resistance (around 7 - 8 kohms) on pins

SInce the calibrator is connected to the BNC connector,? and the calibrator can be powered on with a magent acting on the reed switch; when the CDV700 is turned off,? the calibrator output is

Built a smaller version tonight after dinner. Installed it inside a CDV700 6a. Used a magnetic reed switch to turn it on and off. https://youtu.be/QQ1TAKS_nbc the steel ball bearing I am holding in my

errata: if Vcc is dropped to 2.4~ 2.5V, the TL1431 started to get noisy. I had forgotten to add a cap for the power rail. 10uF seems to fix the stability. Zener wasn't affected. 2.4V zener seems very

Hi: Not a polished circuit, but I thought this might be of interest to the group. Attached is a circuit for a simple calibrator that can be integrated into a CDV-700. It was a pain to design simple

yes, holding off, though I like to take things apart.

actually, yes!? looking forward to getting out and back to the office routine.? work from home to me means working on fun stuff I want to work on (hobbies)

hi Lenox,? I will check the wiring when I get the replacement transformer. those ebay listing pictures were not the best, but it looked like the lionel transformers have four wires one side and two

That’s a bummer! You guys convinced me that I should buy one for a spare and now I see that they are all gone! He who hesitates is lost! Lenox Subject: Re: [CDV700CLUB] Leni conversion #3 You won't

Hi Michael, I am surprised that the locations of the wires on the ENI transformer and the Lionel transformer are different. Double check that. Here’s how the Lionel transformer mounts: The two tabs

Another good tip, I didn't think of using the Lionel Shop Manual.If I did think of it, I forget, frequent naps ya know.George

It was a few years ago when I last checked the resistance of the windings. Since I slept since then, I forgot what they were! The transformer resistances in the circuit are in the shop manual.

Might wait ripping into it before you have a chance to compare with the news ones.Geo

I understand Michael C. and agree 100% to trouble shoot problems all the way, before making upgrades. I'll bet you're glad to get out of the house?Geo
