UXCELL DC 12V 1.1A 11.4mm Electromagnetic Solenoid Latch Lock for Cabinet Door Lock

I wired this to a 12v 750ma ac adapter and plugged it into an amazon plug. Then I created a 3 line Alexa routine to turn on the plug, (open the gate), wait five seconds and turn off the plug, so power doesn't stay on to the solenoid for too long. This way we can open our dog kennel with voice command. The solenoid works great for this.

Just as shown in perfect condition!

They don’t hold very much weight, found out the hard way after I designed a tailgate to use them on Ended up buying two sets and then found out they don’t hold up to any kind of pressure at all, maybe that’s my fault

works real nice, i used a regular door receiver to latch, perfect for my drawer lock project. you will need to make it fit to your need.

This was used for a Halloween display and worked fine.

I used this with a relay switch and an esp32. Worked great.

I can stop the action with just two fingers. If the door has any kind of pressure on this latch, the door will NOT open. VERY WEAK, NO PULL.

I bought this to be used to lock my garage door during short trips to the store. Wired to a DC adapter and to a wireless outlet, I can easily lock and unlock it after closing without going around. I’ve been using it daily and it’s proven reliable, despite me having left it retracted multiple times for hours. If you leave it in its default state, protruding/stuck out, it works good. But if when powered/retracted it will heat up quick and I’d be skeptical of its safety or at least longevity doing so. You get what you paid for but considering all it would take to be left on is forgetting or other equipment failure I would definitely approach with caution.

Il est puissant, etc. Rien à dire
