I am replacing a plug in transformer with output 12VAC. This is 16.5. Is that a problem?

You should always ensure that you're replacing like products. Check the model/serial number before ordering. I replaced an old plug in with this one and it works as designed. Again, check the model/serial number before ordering.

I recommend you stick with same output V as the original equipment. I don't know what you are powering up, but some circuit board items might not be able to handle the added volts.

Check the power rating on the spec sheet. I've got a 650watt and its been fine.

The new power supply needs to match the old power supply as to voltage and amperage. Example as read off the old power supply label, "output: 5v, 1.0A". What ever you buy needs to match. The plug on the new power supply that goes into your device also needs to be the same type. You can always cut off the old plug and splice it into the new power supply. It is difficult to find a new supply that meets both criteria. The voltage/amp is the critical item, the plug can be fixed by you.

The question is not your engine but the low voltage and wattage needed to run that engine.This transformer is for 0,027 and G scale.

That will work, a 16' of 3528's draws 24 watts @ 12vdc. Just make sure that power supply is 12 vdc. If used alot then a 48 watt or 72 watt @ 12vdc would be better.

Those little transformers are rated for 12volts at 500ma. I'm running four units on one transformer for the past two years, sixteen hours a day with no problem. Hardly warm to the touch. Five units shouldn't be a problem.

The transformer voltage equipment is automatic 110-220VAC. I have the machine and have it so.

On the stereo there is usually a plate that gives input/output specifications. Check the output of the transformer. Voltage is not the only issue. If wattage doesn't match you could burn up either or both components.

It should be easily converted. The transformer is external. It can't be drawing very much. Since it is electronic I suspect it is converted to DC inside the unit. I was able to download a manual from the companies website. You might do likewise to confirm it just needs to be fed 18vac, then pick up the correct corresponding transformer off amazon.

hello: I have a separate circuit at 120 volts and it's still working fine. I don't think you can use 220 on the unit. The 120 only supplies the power board only and then the transformer changes all the power circuit to 12 volts.

I'm not sure. I based my purchase on voltage listed matching and the plug looked the same.?

I had the same issue with the unit i installed. I looked closer at the specs and realized it is a dc 12 volt unit. If you are using an ac transformer, it will not function correct.

Don't know.-- Added my own meter lights and replaced an internally shorted transformer with a bigger and better one out of the junk box. Also put higher capacity pass transistors on my second unit. Yeah the fan gets growly; other than that they both work.

I used 110 to the transformer...but don't see why you couldn't if the voltage was the same. You'd have to clip the plug and wire directly.

The 1863watt appliance is under 2000watt. But that's under normal operation. Instant wattage could be much higher especially when turning on the appliance. It is recommended to have the transformer at least 50% higher than the wattage of the normal operation load. So you should have at least 2500watt transformer. Or 3000watt one to be safe.

Yes - the output voltage is 12 VAC (not 12 VDC as a previous answer stated). But one of the other commenters was correct about the min load. When you just hook up the transformer and test the output without a load, it will read zero, or close to it. I thought the product was broken at first, but one I connected the load, all was well. It's been functioning great since (about 5 months ago).

Nope. Output on it is 21.75v and it would fry a 12v in a matter of seconds.
