Anyone remember my mentioning that Murphy lives in my shop?  I finally am 
get around to checking out my hardware.  First thing, I check just the 
controller assembly by itself.  Plug it in--no problem.  Press the ON 
button--contactor closes nicely. Press the OFF button--contactor opens 
nicely.  Press the ON button again--contactor closes nicely.  Wait a few 
seconds--contactor coil emits copious smoke.  Pull plug, remove contactor, 
examine it--coil is 24V rather than the 115V I thought I had ordered.  Get 
on-line, order proper contactor.  Wait.
