What Nando said.  12 X 12 is an excellent size.  Basically, the bigger tab, the better.  And no, I'm not saying dual ram 12 X 36s... :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Good choice, I love my Lencos. I recommend getting the old style rocker switches. The ones with no light indicators, switch wires directly to the actuators and eliminates the need for the additional control box.

Lennco's here
with old style rocker switches, no module/control box, self retracting etc its just more to break.
