Hello Leo,

Thank you for the kind words!

I think some of my connector issues are due to the track being in the garage and seeing temperature extremes that come from living in Chicago. In the areas I was having trouble I was seeing 3-10 ohms of resistance between rail to rail connections and now I am down to .2 to .6 ohms. I also found the connectors to be loose in some of the rails because of poor crimps. The ones with poor crimps sometimes were pushed in to the track further than others. I will take pics and post to show what I am talking about later. 

I have been disassembling the track and adding these on every piece of track. I went from ohm readings of 3-10 ohms on some rails over 15 pieces of track to .6 to 1 ohm. Also found high ohm readings where the jumpers are between rails on the switch tracks. The copper that is installed in the rail was corroded and not making great contact. was seeing ohm reading as high as 10 on some switch tracks. Again this is probably a issue of the temperature extremes the track sees and age of some of the switch tracks.

Have a great day,

Kevin
