Tsunami 2 Questions

Do you have to use resistors for the lights on a Tsunami 2 decoder or do the V= and V1 outputs  take the place of the resistors.

If your talking about the TSU-PNP Tsunami2 decoder (also the ECO-PNP Econamy decoders as well) and using 1.5V bulbs then you don't need resistors if you connect one lead to the V1 tab and the other to function output.

If using LED then you'll need resistors connecting the anode of the LED to V+ tab and catode to function output with resistor.

They really have good illustrations on how to wire up LEDs or lamps, be sure to download those Tech Notes cited above.
