Bad connection on double solenoids... Best replacement?
Hi all,
After much convincing of our head mentor, our team has decided to go with two double solenoids on our launcher. The reason the persuasion was needed is the bad experiences we have had with pneumatics in the past. Luckily, after much testing last night, we believe we have narrowed the problem down to bad connections were the wires enter the solenoid. They would switch on and off when they were wiggled, and brand new ones did not have this problem.
(tl;dr: bad connections where wires enter solenoids have been causing many problems.) Now to the questions...
Is there a way to open the solenoids and fix the wires?
What are the best solenoids to get as a replacement?
Thanks,
Zaque
