Perhaps you've been assembling a new robot friend, adding a computer for a 
brain and other fun personality touches. Now the time has come to let it leave 
the nest and fly on its own wings– err, 
wheels!
These durable (but affordable!) plastic gearbox motors (also known as 'TT' 
motors) are an easy, low-cost way to get your projects moving. This is a TT DC 
Gearbox Motor with a gear ratio of 1:48, and it comes with 2 x 200mm wires 
with breadboard-friendly 0.1" male connectors. Perfect for plugging into a 
breadboard or terminal blocks. 
You can power these motors with 3VDC up to 6VDC, they'll of course go a little 
faster at the higher voltages. We grabbed one motor and found these stats when 
running it from a bench-top supply 
At 3VDC we measured 150mA @120 RPM no-load, and 1.1 Amps when

At 4.5VDC we measured 155mA @185 RPM no—Ioad. and 1.2 Amps when

At 6VDC we measured 160mA @ 250 RPM no-load, and 1.5 Amps when

recommend our DRV8833 motor driver for these motors, as it works well down
to 3V and can be set up with current limiting since the stall current on these can
get high. The T136612 can also be used. it's on our shields and wings, but you'll
