Literally moments away from pulling the trigger on three steppers but I want to confirm something.
These motors from Zapp on eBay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250808317000&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123) are SY60STH86-3008BF [link to PDF (http://www.zappautomation.co.uk/downloads/PDF%20Datasheets%20and%20manuals/Stepper%20Motors/SY60STH86-3008BF.pdf)]
These motors direct from Zapp (http://www.zappautomation.co.uk/sy60sth883008b-nema-stepper-motor-p-24.html?cPath=9_159_42) are SY60STH88-3008BF (note the 86- and 88-) [link to PDF (http://www.zappautomation.co.uk/downloads/PDF%20Datasheets%20and%20manuals/Stepper%20Motors/SY60STH88-3008BF.pdf)]
The 86- set are much cheaper and, looking at the spec sheet I can't see anything that I understand to be a functional difference between the two other than the colour of the wiring. I asked Zapp but the email didn't quite answer the question though I probably didn't phrase it properly.
I'll be running them with PM752s. Could someone with a bit of knowledge say if there's a reason to go for the 88- instead of the 86- version? That £30 difference would be handy!
