I have no connection with the vendor, other than as a happy customer, but they may be of interest to some here.

Excellent power unit - highly recommended as one of the only ways to get tram truck sideframes in N scale.

Is it 12v?

All the Tomytec chassis are 12v.

What is the situation regarding vat on imports to the UK now we have left the EU?

I understand that this has changed since 2020.

No change for countries outside EU ---- the usual "lottery" applies --- this year ½ of my purchases from Japan have been delivered without additional charges, the other ½ have attracted the import charges.
Goods from EU are now chargeable unless exempt, for example 3D prints from Shapeways in the Netherlands are exempt -- described as " plastic ornaments" Other model railway models will be chargeable.

Although this is a nominal 12v unit, I have used it as a power bogie in a radio controlled railcar and it runs nicely off a single cell LiPo battery (which is 3.7 v nominal).
