My RAMPS, steppers, and Pololu's were sold in one package as a kit. Should I be worried that the steppers I was sent are rated at 2.8V? It looks to me like the RAMPS schematic is saying they will be runnig off of 12V.

the voltage rating of the steppers dont matter so much... anything between 2.8v - 30v would be fine
