From a newbie prospective "How to figure power for a DCC system" in the DCC corner was no help. I read it as like the author was writing for wiring a club layout. I got a chuckle out of the last paragraph..this isn't something you have to do right away, you may start with one booster and add more as needed, but it is good to have a general idea of your future requirements. Can't even figure out my requirements now!
