where did you get that controller? i have a traffic light in my room and the only way to control it is by using light switches. how much is the controller, anyway?
You can usually find a cheap circuitboard style controller that fits inside the signal on the auction websites. Just search for "traffic light controller" or "lights to go". If there isn't one now, there will be. They usually run over $50 depending on how many people bid on them. Installation is simple.
An easy way to check how may phases it supports is this: on the EPAC main menu screen, you will see an OS version. Anything 2.x is 8 phase, anything 3.x is 16 phase.
I will probably be getting the M50 soon from another collector. Its alot more powerful than the 300's and they aren't easy to come by for collectors. Priced new the M50 is $2,100. I don't think Charlie here is getting one. This is my first shot at getting one myself.
lol restore plastic. You can't really restore plastic, you can clean it, thats really it. But anyways cool video. The EPACs do 16 phases but 8 phases have outputs. the other 8 have to be modified to work. But to be picky, I am NOT impressed with how you have the wiring set up. Live voltage is a concern, and the wires can easily slip off a load switch and blow the EPAC and give quite a fireworks display. Build a cabinet and mount everything inside.
Well, I only hooked this up for testing. I only had it on for the video, and I have it all disconnected now. Don't worry, I'll buy a cabinet..you'll keep bugging me about it..lol
Obviously you haven't been bit by 120 volts. Not a tickle, and plus the amps can kill. Anything over .01 Amps kills and this setup has 2. Not only that but the EPAC units as well as most traffic controllers run on a low voltage, if the wiring pile he has going comes loose and the high voltage connections touch the low ones, you'll blow the brains out of a very expensive controller and pose a fire hazard. In other words, electricity is nothing to "play" with, especially the higher voltages
to continue from my last post, he would be much better off if he mounted the controller load switch packs appropriately in a locked cabinet. Thats the proper way to do it. I've told him constantly to do this, I guess it's going to take a fire, damage, or himself being blown across the room to get him to put this thing in a cabinet like it should be.
actually i have ur right its not pleasure lol but i c ur safty is strong thts great but after all no one is perfect we all make mistakes and if he wants to take danger thts his decision. but i do under stand ur point of view
Well Nick, I've told you as well, it's not easy to get a cabinet. I'm not going to make mu own, if I do get something like this, it's gonna be the real thing. Don't worry Nick, I know what I'm doing, and I'm being super cautious and keeping safety in mind at the same time.
I know you how to wire it, lol i taught you that, its just the "pile" you have going with the load switches that bugs me. I don't want you to get hurt with it or damage a nice controller like the EPAC. A cabinet would be a good investment and keep the controller running inside. or even just a small shelf with the wiring neatly mounted.
omg ur rich xD

I bug you about it because I'd hate to see you damage the controller or get hurt. 120 is not to be messed with.
