Re: Muscle Wire

I would tend to think more in terms of my usual nemesis, quick release triggers, and various other places where I need short stroke linear action. Especially because these are enormously lighter than pneumatics. Multiple strands would actually help with the issue of driving them properly, as long as you wired them in series. It'd almost make more sense to use them in even numbers, so your source and drain could be on the same side of the actuator.
