Hi all,
I'm in the process of building a timer for an irrigation system. I am using a 24 volt solenoid valve that I pulled from an Orbit timer. The Orbit runs on two AA batteries (3v). The board inside the Orbit timer has a 1000uF capacitor @ 6.3v and a second 2200uF @ 25v, which I am assuming is used to charge the solenoid valve. This is where I get stuck and would be very grateful if someone could at least point me in the right direction if not help my solve the problem. I have looked for a schematic online but to no avail.
Thanks in advance,
Ty
