Default Electronic valves
Just wondering what is the best options for electronic valves? I know the jet-tronics valves and the xicoy. Also, which is the valves that works for retracts. I building a Xcalibur plus and want to use electronic valves of servo operated valves. Thanks in advance.

I have had a few xicoy not work with psi over 100-105 psi. I had a bunch of them but switched back to jettronics, I hate the price of them but the pulse function is really nice.

xicoy only makes one two-way valve, you need a two-way
