Did anyone find out if this decoder has any problems, as reported earlier on the board?
Thanks,

I have tested a couple of new DZ125s at 19 volts and found no problems. I hope to get back some of the original ones I installed to see if they had the same problem as the DZ125 I used in one of my own projects. I believe these were all from the first batch produced. On my last visit to Digitrax.com I noticed that they have upped the maximum voltage rating on this decoder from 18 to 20 volts. This may indicate a running change in the components Digitrax is using, most likely the output transistors. I am left wondering if I was not the only one to experience problems using these decoders with the E-Z Command.
Thanks for the response, Jim.
I did install this decoder in my Rivarossi 2-8-2. It was my "first" hard install, and it was easier that I expected. This size of decoder was a good choice, there is very limited space in there....
Other than the space, I have run this Loco all day, with no problems...
I do use the Bachmann EZ-Command system, by the way. So far NO conflicts.
Thanks again for the help.
