Great controller for P-series Actuonix actuators...
This is a must-purchase if you are planning to use a P-series Actuonix linear actuator (P16, L16-P, and L12-P) . It makes assembly and use much easer. The P-series actuators include a Potentiometer but do NOT have a built-in controller, and thus this component is desired/needed. Note: There are voltage power, speed, wiring, controller, and force, differences between the various Actuonix actuators. If you are not sure which one to purchase, then suggest printing out their spec sheets and carefully comparing them. My application called for the Actuonix P16 actuator with the 22:1 gear ratio that offers their fastest speed option with their longest stroke available, and runs on 1-15VDC. I plugged that actuator into the LAC board, and connected the LAC into a Pololu Mini Maestro 24, and was able to quickly prototype a simple solution using the Maestro software.
