Correct. Anything larger, aka #18, will not work with the holes on the machine. there are times that I have needed to use 18 and the hole can be carefully enlarged with a numbered drill bit (I forget which one). I usually have used #22 or smaller.

At what gauge wire does the wire become too big to attach to the Tortoise? I used 20 ga. for my feeders....should I assume I'll have no trouble using that for my Tortoise machines?

Research; it's not just for geeks.
Works fine for me!

That should be fine. They draw very little current.
Getting ready to install about 30 machines. the instructions say to use a light gage wire. Will 22 Ga. do the trick or should it be something different?
