Hey guys, I picked up two rotating solenoids at a surplus store
recently and I haven't the slightest clue on what voltage to use. I
googled the Serial Numbers but these solenoids seem to not be very
common. Should I just try random voltages , do I run the risk of
damaging the solenoid? Also how can i get a power supply that has
variable voltage?
