Excellent product, well made, quick delivery and works perfectly. I did think these were going to be cheap and not any good as they are less than half the price of the JJ ones I buy, but I am proven wrong. Excellent. In fact you might sell more if they were more expensive (only to others though). Thanks I'll be back for more for sure. I'll open the credit account you offered too as I am told I only need to send an official purchase order to do this. Wish other suppliers were as easy to deal with. PS Thanks for the catalogue too.

Far better than expected - quick delivery - works very well indeed. However description is wrong as these self return with power removed and dont stay put - which is a huge benefit, so suggest you revise desciption and would sell a lot more. Well done A+ recommedend.

Excellent quality ball valve. Feels very solid. Note that the 3-wire version can be wired so as to only use power on the opening/closing movement so saving 9v battery power when valve is not actually moving.
