Been a while.. just a note to advise others..
I used one of the electric valves to control flow out of my RDS tank.
Last fall the darned valve stopped working.. the coil fried.. had to order another whole valve to get a replacement coil..
during this process I was looking at the duty cycle of the value..
100% duty cycle, but not continuous... what the heck is that? I thought 100 was 100?
anyhow, replaced coil and its working fine.. so, for those that have done the same, check the coil... I started blowing fuses.. every day

Thanks Sam.......
I purchased one awhile ago. Have not gotten to that item yet. I have just a manual valve right now. I will look closely at the specs on my valve......
How's Life Sam.......??
