Festo? Or SMC

For the past few years team 503 has been using the 24 volt festo solenoids and they have worked fine. Just this year we switched over to the 12 volt festo solenoids and they lacked the consistancy of the 24 volts. We dont want to switch back to the 24s because the whole system runs on 12 volts. Our teams had to individually crack each of the wires and pull out the pins and solder them te the back plate on the solenoid. It cost us many matches in districts as well as states and I was wondering if the SMC's had a similair issue and if any team have had problems that made them unreliable and cost them matches.
