Ebay has some 12v ones for $15.99ea and gives shipping discount.

If you're going to be adding quick fit adapters to that you get pretty close to 25 bucks anyway.

I'm a little more concerned with his description of the solenoid heating up to the point that it could damage something nearby. I don't know if that's normal for 120vac solenoids or not but it seems like a pretty good case for using a lower voltage coil. I've switched the 24v solenoids in sprinkler control units with anything from 12vdc to 24vac and they don't get that hot.
