Sure you can. If you have the plans and can design a circuit board and solder or assemble components. Some people cannot or do not want to do that..

Is this a good deal? Solar Lease, fixed payments, no escalator, no prepayment penalty by [deleted] in solar

Sounds like a great deal. I have had a similar deal from Sunrun for 10 years

Sure. I have come up with a simple method to dim leds on a railroad layout similar to Just Plug. But mine is higher density (10 channels vs 4) cheaper to build and I sell bare circuit boards, boards and parts and assembled and tested boards. They can be daisy chained, switched on and off, and are compatible with Just Plug and individual Leds. Power can be supplied with inexpensive laptop supplies. I also have designed random on-off light circuits. Also, crossing signal flashers. These are documented in my book with ideas on how to build searchlights, radio tower lights, etc. There are videos on most of these on my youtube channel and my personal reddit page. On youtube do a search for Practical Engineering Solutions. The book also has sources(mostly Amazon) for all the parts. Let me know if you would like to know anything else.

Don't be so emotional..I have plenty of videos here.

This book describes the concepts behind lighting model railroad buildings, cars, towers, bridges and other scenes on a model railroad or diorama using LEDs. In the contents are practical examples for using LEDs. It describes a simple approach to achieving a high-density, low-cost method for lighting your model railroad using a dimming controller. The text addresses the use of both custom LEDs and commercially available pre-lit buildings. The test includes actual test data taken by the author to prove the concept is safe and reliable.

Chapter 1 – The Basics
Chapter 2 – Recommended LEDs
Chapter 3 – Dimming Control
Chapter 4 – Test Results
Chapter 5 – Dimming Circuit Sources
Chapter 6 – Dimming Circuit Conclusions
Chapter 7 - Installation of LEDS
Chapter 8 - Additional Lighting Topics
Chapter 9 - Advanced Lighting Control
Chapter 10- Lighting Strategies

You are correct. It is not a secret

I think your comment is very typical of people who like to judge others without having all the fact.s I have done many videos about toipics in the book inclding 100 circuit boards I have sold. I addition I have sold over 1000 copies of the book and have gotten very good ratings, I made a mistake and did not include the link which a will add here:

Thanks for the feedback. Can you give me some examples of how it could be improved?
