Tony's is releasing a new, upgraded version of the popular Power Shield Circuit Breakers and Auto Reversers that it pioneered for DCC Power Regulation and Segmenting.

The new Power Shield products were upgraded to intelligently discriminate for the various types of loads experienced by DCC users, such as Sound Decoders, Stationary Decoders and multiple incandescent lamps,all which have high in-rush currents that can trip (Fool) short circuit responses of most DCC Boosters and other Circuit Breakers.

The new products and features are:

PSRev: A DCC Auto Reverser with integrated Circuit Breaker. Now rated for 8 Amps and EZ programming jumpers for both trip current and response times.($39.95)

PSOne: A DCC Circuit Breaker for short circuit regulation of ONE power district Now rated for 8 Amps with EZ programming jumpers for both trip current and response times.($29.95)

PSTwo: A DCC Circuit Breaker for short circuit regulation of TWO power districts. Now rated for 8 Amps with EZ programming jumpers for both trip current and response times.($49.95)

PSFour: A DCC Circuit Breaker for short circuit regulation of FOUR power districts.($79.95) Now rated for 8 Amps with EZ programming jumpers for both trip current and response times.

The new product mix will provide Power Shield options for all DCC environments from small to large users.

Production was halted on the prior design. The new PSRev and PSOne are in stock. PSTwo and PSFour are to be released in about a month.
