TCS 1450 ~ LL8-KA ~ DCC Motor Decoder ~ 8 Functions ~ For Life Like Proto 2000 ~ Keep Alive Wires

TCS LL8-KA Decoder ~ HO Scale ~ 1.989″ x 0.694″ x 0.134″ ~ 1450

The LL8-KA is a 8-function direct-plug decoder designed specifically to meet the needs of LifeLike/Proto 2000 models. The LL8-KA can quickly be swapped for the existing DC board in your model, making the installation process fast and simple. The LL8-KA has a built-in circuit for the existing 1.5V bulbs used for the forward and reverse headlights. The remaining 6 lighting functions on the LL8-KA are rated for 12V.

IMPORTANT! If your model uses LED lighting from the factory, or you plan to upgrade to LED headlight(s), use the LL8-LED-KA.

The LL8-KA includes factory-installed Blue and Black&White wires to use when connecting Keep Alive®. In order to use Keep Alive® with this decoder, simply solder the wires from the Keep Alive® to the corresponding wires on the decoder.
