2. What other AutomationDirect parts have you used on an FRC Robot (this year or previous)? Please include a link to the part on our webstore.

3. Your shipping address (if you are uncomfortable posting this publicly – you can PM me)
1. We are saving ~ .6 lbs by using two PGU14 and one PRU14. Even more important, we are saving lots of space with these parts. Thank you!

2. We are using the "U" shaped adapters to connect the above regulators and gauges into a tight block. TU14

We also use tube from automation direct (both 1/4" for typical runs and 5/32" tubing for runs that require a smaller bend radius)

We also use a myriad of push to connect fittings from Automation Direct

Automation Direct is one of our go-to suppliers, we probably spend $300-$500 on Automation Direct products annually.

3. I'll PM you address.

Thanks!

-Mike
