        Clyde,

        You can google it and come up with numerous results for the most popular Pyramid PS26KX 22 amp power supply. Locally you could try Fry’s or Altex. I have not paid more than $100 for the three I have purchased. It is a great unit. Good luck.

            I just bought a Vellman 0-15 vdc 3 amp power supply from Frys for bench testing. ($79) I didn’t see an Pyramid PS26KX power supplies when I was there, however there were others. (Might save you the trip.)

            Build it strong.
            Keep it simple.
            Make it work.

              Sorry its been a while

              life *Shrug* but… I’ve painted, coppered my track (now soldering the breaks)

              I’ve found a cheap power supply, a Pyramid PS52KX – I got it for cheap. I mean cheap. (and locally)

              so I m gonna hope this will work for me, I m hoping next weekend I will be wiring up the track, as I have my kids’ basketball games this week/weekend from that darn snow day, back in Minnesota – we laughed at this 🙂 and Im sadly part of it.

              *grin* Thanks for the tips etc:

                Clyde,

                Good luck with connecting the power to your track. Running your first laps on a new track are so rewarding.

                It would be great if you could post some pics of your new track.

                Being from St Paul MN I fully understand what you are talking about!

                Come out and run your cars with us some weekend.

                Marty
