SSQA Linear Actuator

[GBJeffOH]

I decided to build this.

It is a little slow. Usually I can activate it while I am driving so no waiting.

You even gave us a shopping list !

What is the length between SSQA handles where you attached it?

Thanks for posting the information on the actuator. I had trouble with mine early this Winter and removed it. I believe mine was a little weak and I exceeded the duty cycle. I had been getting implements on/off and in/out of the shed and it decided to take some time off.

BTDT 4-5 years ago, yes most LinActs are slow. I used a 'boost converter' to jump the 12 volts to about 24 to get faster response. I used a Hydroworks 4" LinAct from Princess Auto, same one on the chute deflector of my riding snowblower.

I added one to my M last year. It could be faster but it works great.

Looks like a good solution to a problem that doesn't exist.
