Interior Lights Easy, Reliable & Low Cost

Installing interior lights in passenger cars can be a djungle, both in terms of available parts and methods of assembly. In this video we are taking a short cut to easy assembly, Ultra Low cost in combination with flicker free performance. Working time per car is about 12-20 minutes.

If you have more than 20 cars on your layout you may consider to in addition to connect a 100 Ohm resistor on the input of the bridge rectifier (at 9:47 in the video) (the brown cable coming from the wheels). The purpose with this extra serie resistor is to reduce the inrush current when track power is switched on.
