thomasmain Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I am thinking of getting the 8878 PF Battery Box. I notice it doesn't come with a charger and is recommended for use with the 8887 10V DC charger. I was wondering if it is also compatible with the 9V chargers made for the train speed regulator or if I definitely need to buy both the 8878 and 8887. Also, will this battery box power PF sets lke the 10196 Grand Carousel (which has a 9V AA battery box)? -T -- Thomas Main thomasmain@charter.net Quote
Davey Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Thomas: No, the old power adapters for the 9V Trains do not work. You must by the new adapter. Sorry. Yes, the rechargeable battery box will power things like the carousel and can substitute the AA battery box. Actually, with the 9V-to-PF adapter wires, you can power just about any LEGO motor. I have even powered my LEGO Monorail motors with the rechargeable new battery box. Hope this helps! -Dave Quote
