I have a question about where I might find some USED/ RECYCLED linear actuators.
When I ordered my JBJr, I bought it with the trip dump, thinking down the road I may some day add the power dump. Now, having gone through what I did in terms of shipping, I am in no hurry to order a new one from John at Johnny Products any more than I think he wants to ship one to me. Just too expensive and messy with the paper work.
So, I have seen many folks speak of the actuators onced used in the large satellite dishes. But most of my research points to these units being both too long (usually 18" or more) and requiring too high a voltage (min 24vDC, usually 36vDC).
So, Topdj, while I know you still have a spare you are hoping to sell, I really can't see me chasing the hassle of trying to get that unit across the border.
So, where might I expect to find one of these units? Someone also mentioned exercise bikes and steppers.
Again, just need enough for the power dump, I already have the "good" actuators for the JBJr and sleeve hitch lifts.
thanks
