If I remember correctly, it has a small plunger that opens first to let press stabalize, then full bigger plunger opens. It is constant voltage, but low amp draw to maintain open (doesn't get hot). Myself, I like the NOS brand open/closed pinch type bottle valve. It is bumped with momentery open/ closed switch and stays in either postion with no contstant voltage, and it snaps open like a big dog instantly. You can find them on e-bay for 60 bucks or so, another option.

We sell a similar opener, they work great! Big time flow so the plunger seal has much more area, better resistance to leaking. Draws very low power! Still its a solenoid opener, you still need to turn the bottle off when done at the end of the night, we its reccomended. Robert, we need to hire you for tech support, your all over this stuff!

I'm not a fan of the solenoid type bottle openers. I prefer the true openers that actually open the bottle valve itself. I've got a new "true" opener that opens the bottle valve made by NOS for sale right now actually.
