I generally recommend the DC-powered version, because it’s more flexible in terms of power options. You can power it with a USB adapter (through USB cable), or the included power adapter, or 12V DC solar panel. The DC-powered version has been tested with many off-the-shelf 24VAC valves, and also pump start relays, and have worked well with them.
