hey all-
Im building 100 or so demo stands for monkeylectric.com to showcase their
POV lights. Im building a device that will mount on a bike (that will be
suspended in a bike stand), with a motor that spins the wheel to make the
designs visable.
I need a bulk supply of DC motors, with the qualities of quiet (as possible)
and cheap (as possible). I don't think they need *too* much torque as the
bike will be in the air and the only friction being the hub (am i versing
this right?).
So ya. Does anyone have any leads on this amount of motors? we found some
locally but theyre rather large and heavy; and others are way too loud.
best
