thanks Nicholas.
we have an rs components here in Australia but £6 is about $18 from me and i want to get about 20 of them. as i am on an artist wage, i don't need high precision stuff. i'm sure there must be some where i can get one that is cheaper. if anyone can give me model numbers and/or brands of cheap solenoids that would help my search, as thus far i am still looking at 10-20 bucks each for a simple push solenoid.
thanks all for your suggestions.

In the UK they are available from www.rswww.co.uk . Search for miniature solenoids. The cost is about £6 each though.

hi tom
i bought them in an ordinary electronic store in my town for ca. 3 euros/piece. but i don't know where they got them. they still have around 1000 pieces, iirc. i had the impression, that this solenoids are as ordinary things as electro motors and resistors and thus should be available in ordinary electronic stores. if it is really impossible for you to get some, i could send you some (for the price of the solenoids and shipping cost).

i roman, i was just revisiting this thread. could you tell me what solenoids you used, i'm have a really hard time finding cheap domestic solenoids for a similar project. they all seem to be really expensive. is there a good place to purchase cheap solenoids, or somewhere to get second hand ones.
cheers.

Hi! I don't want to insist... but a task like this would be much easier with the http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/SimpleMessageSystem than with something not-as-flexible like Pduino.
