I have recieved my Railstars RAILbooster in the post today.
It works - currently outputs 14.3VDC from supplied 15VDC, I used a bridge rectifier to enable multimeter measurement of the track voltage. (sourced the idea from dccwiki article on How to convert dcc to dc)
Microduino sending dcc signal to booster which is being isolated in order for the arduino to monitor the dcc packet. Can't have 14.3 VDC going straight to the Arduino that would kill the arduino.
DCC monitor in action - all those numbers (except for the idle packet - 11111111 00000000 11111111) are due to my major speed change.
