    Default WTB: Hankscraft 3v .5pm motors

    Please PM me if you have any. I'd like to pick up four or five. Must be in good working condition. Mounting hardware not necessary.

    Thanks!
    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    mayyyybeeeee...

    can you test one with 5v and 3v and see what happens? i'm building a portable *thing* that i'd really like to be able to run off a 6v lantern battery. motor needs to be nice and slow but have some torque.

    ...it improves... Tested fine at both 3 and 5-6V, forward and reverse, and... 5-6V actually looks 'best' (subjective, yes...) in-that you get a reeealy nice 'slow-crawl' - even the already-slow 0.5 rpm @ 12V seems kinda 'fast', by-comparison, IMO... the speed @ 6V will create some really-nice 'crawling' lumia, especially full or multi-color...

    Talk to ya on PM...
    peace..
