Fantastic, solved my ...
By Ken P from Erie PA on 3/26/2007

Fantastic, solved my robotic project's power hungry needs. Worked well when matched with the 9.6V RadioShack NiCd/NiMh recharable battery packs. The only thing is you have to know what you are doing when using this motor. It's not a beginner?s motor. Proper motor control electronics and gearing knowledge are required.
