 Howdy Frank, thanks for the info.  1 inch a second is
pretty slow.  OK for a manip possibly if it has a high load.  Which
model was the Firgelli you bought?  Looks like they are 1”/sec as
well. I would like to find a good one like the teledynes.  The Lenco is certainly
good value.   Rgds,  Hugh From:

[mailto:owner-personal_submersibles@psubs.org] On Behalf Of ShellyDalg@aol.com Hello Hugh. I don't know how fast they are but the Lenco's and
Minnkota trim tab actuators are probably similar in speed. I seem to remember
the 2-1/2 inch stroke on the Minnkota's was 1 inch per second.  Typically the more powerful they are the higher the gearing and
slower speed.  After dis-assembling the Firgelli actuators I have to investigate
how oil compensation might be accomplished, I saw how cheaply they are made.
Not even close to the Lenco's brochure as to quality. At $259 or so, they seem like a fairly inexpensive and powerful
actuator. Frank D.
