Hi, Piccers! I've been looking around for an electric clutch for some time now with = little success. Here are the specs I'm looking for: --> 1-20 lb holding force --> low power (<300 mAh --> fails in open position (i.e. normally open operation - closed when = activated) --> low cost <$70 Any solutions? Please note that these parameters are very flexible. If = you know of anything that remotely fits the bill, please pass it along! BTW, this clutch will be used in a kind of "cruise control" (not for a = car, though :o) ), where it is desirable to have a manual override. The = clutch will go between a servo and the throttle. Thanx again for your ideas! - Robert -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways. See http://www.piclist.com/#archives for details.
