Re: Automation Direct Solenoid Cables

The "whats in the box" picture shows the 2 connectors screwed on top of the solenoid pins. They're the dark grey things on top with the little screw. You'll just need the wire. The advantage to the ready made connectors, with the wire, you can buy on the site is that they are a little bit better built and they include an indicator led on top of the connector housing. The ones in the box are cheap and flimsy, but they are probably good enough for FRC. The LED is also very handy for diagnosing problems.

The best source for info on anything from Automation direct is to call them. They have awesome support and always get back to me very quickly if I can't speak to someone right away. It's the reason I buy as much stuff from them whenever I can at work.
