It should only do one thrust its the same as
the
solenoid in a door chime and these stay in ok if you hold the button. Watch
the
buttons you use are capable of switching the current or they will burn out
quickly.

After Alancc's tip, CPC have some pull/push
solenoids
available. They've faxed me over a copy of the page in their catalogue, and
the last one, the SM2 series (12v, pull/thrust) has tapped holes for
attaching. I'm concerned tho that if I have a button, it will do repeated
thrust attempts - when only 1 will do !!!
Is there anyway to interupt the 12v signal from the button to the
solenoid so it only sends the voltage breifly ?
So - next step - where's the cheapest 12v dc
transformer I can get ? I will need to split the voltage to two buttons, so
both the left and right doors can be opeed. And maybe the front mirror too
Now Maplins have some nice
looking
buttons I need to check out...
