Off-topic, but the learned denizens here are pretty good at asking bizarre questions.
I need an inductive load to switch a 28 VDC 12 A circuit into. Note that this is a one time test circuit, and I don't want to break the bank. My initial thought was to parallel a couple of 28 VDC relay coils to get the 12 A current. What I'm finding is that most of the relay coils draw less than an amp, and I don't want have to parallel 16 relays to draw that much current. Does anyone have a better suggestion for me? I'm having zero luck finding out how much an automotive starter solenoid draws, if I could find a
24 VDC diesel starter solenoid that requires 3 or more amps, that would probably be doable.
