    Ahh, give me a clue what you'd use a motorized valve in, and I'll move this to a better forum :)

    I've extended the leads using 5 core wire and proper junction boxes in the past. I just asked the shop to supply wire & junction boxes that were rated to a higher ampage than what is used in the motors

    I like the junction box idea because it makes it easier to swap out when replacing.

    Oh god yes, I'm reasonably good at DIY so I'd do a lot of small jobs for my friends and for convenience sake (mine :P) any-time I change a motor for a friend I switch it to Sauter head if the valve body will accept them
