FAQ for Model Train & Railway Accessories Batteries
A: “Dead Rail” is a method of operating model trains where the power comes from a battery on-board the locomotive, not from the track. This eliminates problems caused by dirty track and provides much smoother, more reliable operation.
A: A “Keep-Alive” is a device, often a capacitor or a small battery, connected to a DCC decoder. It provides a brief moment of backup power if the locomotive momentarily loses contact with the track, preventing sound and lights from resetting.
A: For a new custom design, our MOQ typically starts at 20,000 to 50,000 units, depending on the complexity and size.
A: We specialize in miniaturization. We can produce extremely small LiPo cells, but the final size is always a trade-off with capacity (runtime). Please share your available space, and we can propose the highest-capacity solution.
A: This is part of the system design. Charging can be done via a hidden jack on the locomotive, through special charging contacts that touch a powered section of track, or by removing the battery pack.
A: Yes, when used correctly. All our batteries include a Protection Circuit Module (PCM) to prevent over-charging, over-discharging, and short-circuits. Proper ventilation within the model is also important.
A: After the design is finalized, the lead time for the first batch of prototypes is generally 5-7 weeks.
A: Absolutely. We can provide a slim, high-capacity, rechargeable LiPo pack to replace traditional AA batteries, offering a lighter and more convenient solution.
A: Most HO and N scale on-board systems use a single 3.7V cell. Larger scales like O-scale and G-scale often use higher voltage packs (7.4V, 11.1V, or 14.8V) to power their larger, more demanding motors.
A: Please provide the maximum available space (length, width, height), target runtime or capacity (mAh), voltage, the maximum current draw of your motor and electronics, and your estimated annual volume.
