MajorAlvega Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 For my Powered Up Conveyex Monorail I need more power than the Hub can give so I've made a Relay that allows me to turn ON/OFF the monorail motors with the Powered Up Hub (using the Handset or a program) but using the Power Functions LiPo battery for the motors, increasing the autonomy of the Hub's 6xAAA batteries: I've made a LDcad model and generated the instructions, they are available at my blog: https://ofalcao.pt/blog/2019/lego-powered-up-relay Quote
mostlytechnic Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Clever idea to make a completely Lego relay like that! Takes a ton of space though, but if you've got the room and want to stay 100% genuine parts, it's a good idea. Quote

I've space for it on this particular project, the Powered Up Conveyex: so I've removed the hacked cable I was using and now the only non-LEGO parts are the 4DBrix (monorail car extensions, rail ramp extensions and rail diagonals) Quote
