Hi,
OK, thanks :D,
for the connection, according important information in the other topic from the links above, could you confirm if I must connect the coils in serial to the control wires and not in parallel?

to quote from mongos thread


You can not run them in parrallel, it does not work, you would need to spend some time as mentioned with resistors etc.
