I am setting up 4 Digitrax DS64 on my layout to run a bunch of Tortoise switch machines. I want to power them from an external power supply, not from the track. Digitrax sells PS14 power supplies for this purpose that are rated at 14 volts at 300ma. The literature says that you can only use one PS14 per DS64 as if you try to use two DS64s the amperage will be too low. The example given is that you would need 14 volts at 600ma to power two units. Here is my question: Can I buy a power supply that delivers 14 volts at 1.2 amps and connect all 4 of my DS64 up to this supply? There are some of these out there that are built to charge laptop computers. They are not much more than one Digitrax PS14.
Thanks for the help,
Greg
