Says they are the same spec as slot.it orange in which case 9.8W @12v.

Have tested the 6 on hand by (as closely as can be approximated) Mr. Livingston's method. They range from 7.86 w to 10.13 w, with an average of 8.95 w.

FWIW.

Do you want high wattage or low wattage? Pardon my ignorance but what does it mean in motor terms? As I have only been looking at rpm and torque #s and picking motors based on sound.

thanks guy's that fits into what I require

Wattage is a measure of power and it is calculated from the motor's RPMs and torque measurments. Using horsepower units would result in rather small fractions, 1 HP = 746 watts, so when you are measuring small motors you at least end up with some numbers that are to the left of the decimal place. Two motors with the same watt rating could have very different RPMs and torque ratings, with different gears they could perform the same on the track.

cheers for that info
that helps to make sense out of it all :text-thankyouyellow:
