    - small load amp draw: ~ 5 amps
    - Can supply forces to 100 lbs - though the drive speed will diminish @ higher loads.
    - 4 inches (101 mm)/sec or 8 inches (203 mm)/sec speed - easily convertible via metal gears - not plastic
    - Strokes from 1 inch (25 mm) to 27 inches (686 mm) with base model - though they can be converted to a stroke of 6 feet (1524 mm) for more $.
    - Short body length (3.5 (88.9 mm) long X 4(102 mm) wide)
    - Pivot or rigid body mounting
    - Several end connections to choose from

    The best part - only $195.00 US (not including shipping and any taxes).
    Also, the dealer/manufacturing facility is with 20 miles of my location (Oregon, USA) - he has agreed to let me try one of these using the K8055 USB board and bigtalltim's transistor/relay board before I buy.
