A pressure regulation valve including a pilot stage valve with a ball valve body and a conical seat. A shock absorber with at least one pressure regulation valve.

Described in certain example embodiments herein is an electrical controller for a damper body assembly that stores a damping policy and instructions implementing a control method based on the policy. In certain embodiments, the controller receives a sensor output and transmits a signal to alter the contribution to a damping coefficient of the damper from each fluid mass as a function of the sensor output, policy, and control method. Described in several exemplary embodiments herein, are methods of using the electrical controller. Also described in several exemplary embodiments herein are damper body assemblies that can be controlled by the electrical controller, an actuation assembly, and methods of using the same.
