Thanks for all the replies. It seems everyone has a different definition of efficiency, haha.
A long-throw solenoid is inherently inefficient (poor use of power, heat, weak, non-linear).
However, it tends to be quiet, and that's important when you want to stress movement over
noise. And simplicity usually means longevity.
