That being said, the lack of full documentation on the linked site worries me. Most reputable sites provide a little more information on their products. Also, quadrature encoders are usually MUCH more expensive which sets off another flag for me. I would be careful ordering from this site, if you do make sure you monitor your credit card well after that. |
I have bought stuff from BG before. They are a surplus reseller. Someone has 10,000 widgets they don't need, they sell them to BG cheap, and BG resells them. They send out a catalog every quarter that is actually quite enjoyable to read. I get the idea that it is a one man show. Some of the item descriptions have been great. like "I don't what this thing is, but if you hook it up to 12 volts it makes a really loud, hideous noise, and for $1.50, how could you go wrong?"
So, they may not know a lot about what they are selling, but for the price, you can do some research yourself.
