The Train Control Systems KA3 Keep-Alive® is a compact stay-alive capacitor pack that feeds backup power to your DCC decoder whenever the wheels lose contact with the rails. No more stalling on dirty track, dead frogs, or insulated turnouts — the KA3 keeps a locomotive running with its lights and sound on for roughly 6 to 20 seconds during a power interruption (depending on the locomotive and motor). It includes Blue and Black-with-White-stripe lead wires to solder to your decoder's keep-alive pads (V+ and ground), so it works with TCS and most other-brand decoders that accept an external keep-alive. Browse more decoder add-ons in our DCC Accessories collection, shop the full Train Control Systems lineup, or pair it with a new sound decoder from our DCC Decoders collection. Features Keep-Alive® stay-alive capacitor pack eliminates stalling on dirty track, dead frogs, and insulated rail joints. Powers an HO locomotive with lights on for approximately 6 to 20 seconds during a power interruption. Includes Blue and Black/White lead wires to solder to your decoder's keep-alive pads — works with TCS and most other-brand decoders. Input rating 12–16V; works with any scale and any DCC system. More Information Brand Train Control Systems (TCS) Item Number 2000 (KA3) Type Keep-Alive / Stay-Alive Capacitor Pack Connection Blue + Black/White Wire Leads (solder-on) Input Rating 12–16V Scale Any Scale Condition New FAQ What does a Keep-Alive actually do?It stores an electrical charge and feeds it to your decoder when track power drops out, so the locomotive keeps moving and its lights and sound stay on across dirty track, frogs, and gaps. How do I connect the KA3?Solder the Blue wire to your decoder's keep-alive positive (V+) pad and the Black/White wire to the ground pad. It works with TCS decoders and most other brands that offer keep-alive connections — check your decoder's manual for the correct pads. How long will it keep my loco running?Expect roughly 6 to 20 seconds with headlights on for a typical HO locomotive, depending on motor efficiency and current draw.

The WAUX-KA5 is designed specifically for use with the TCS WOW101 decoder. It's a Keep-Alive® energy storage device that supplies continuous power to the decoder whenever the locomotive loses track contact, paired with a built-in auxiliary harness that also routes the decoder's auxiliary outputs for additional functions. The KA5 packs five supercapacitors for higher storage capacity and peak voltage than a KA3 or KA4, keeping your locomotive moving and headlights lit for roughly 6–20 seconds through dirty track, frogs, and other dead spots. Shop more DCC Accessories and Train Control Systems products. Features Designed for use with the TCS WOW101 decoder (not compatible with other decoders without modification) Five supercapacitors for maximum storage capacity and peak charging voltage Includes auxiliary harness for the WOW101's additional function outputs Keeps DCC locos running 6–20 seconds through dead spots and dirty track Keeps headlights, sound, and motor alive during power interruptions Compact form factor fits most HO scale locomotives; also usable in larger scales More Information Brand Train Control Systems (TCS) Item Number 1685 (WAUX-KA5) Product Type DCC Keep-Alive Capacitor with Auxiliary Harness Compatibility TCS WOW101 decoder only Capacitor Count 5 supercapacitors Run-On Time Approx. 6–20 seconds for an HO-scale locomotive Scale Compatibility Any scale running a WOW101 decoder Condition New FAQ Will this work with any TCS decoder?No. The WAUX-KA5 is built specifically for the TCS WOW101 decoder. For other TCS decoders, use the KA5-P or another appropriate Keep-Alive model. What's the difference between this and the KA5-P?Both use the same 5-supercapacitor bank, but the WAUX-KA5 adds a dedicated auxiliary harness wired for the WOW101's extra function outputs. The KA5-P has a simpler 2-pin plug for decoders with a standard Keep-Alive socket. How long does it keep the loco running?Roughly 6–20 seconds depending on the locomotive's motor efficiency and what lighting/sound functions are active.
