blowing up the system?  How many clips can you attach to the regulator before
the resistance start to slow down the trains? (physics wasn't my thing)  Can
you attach anything else like motors (non train ones) to the regulator?  I just
don't want to repeat anyone's bad experiments.

I don't know if it is 'safe' or not, but my kids often use the speed
regulator to run the various (non-train) LEGO 9V electric items.
