Yes these are the solenoid of choice for lowriders, a tenner each is fair but the postage seems a bit steep. They are on his website for £10.49
Ride and drop is a business owned by Lordz member Mike. He hasn't been here for a while as far as I know.

true....Accumax are the original Accurate sols.
You can be sure you get what they are suposed to be from Mike

Would have thought you'd get them all on Parcelforce for not more than that if you buy them to collect.
remember you need 12 + spares so if Mike only had 8 do you end up getting the rest from US anyway ?

with the 4 pumps im running with the solenoid built on top, do i still need to wire up extra sols to the battery trays!!!! cheers

the "traditional" way of using multiple sols is  a bit strange tbh................... in practise it works (starting with 2 at 24v and adding another as you go up 12v at a time)
but, really in theory adding them in series shouldn't make any difference to the load they can carry (putting them in paralell would cut the load each one sees)
The biggest advantage is that (with them in paralell) if one sticks you dont get a fire! Every one in a string needs to stick first. You do need to check them regularly with a meter to find stuck ones and replace them tho.....................
Ideally you need 3 accurates (or accumaxes) ina string for each pump. I wouldn't use odd ones in a system.
