Nope, any flashing LED will do.

9031 Tue, 11 Jan 2000 22:56:04 +1100 [alt-beam] automated ICQ list beam@sgiblab.sgi.com "Ben Hitchcock" All,
I have created an automated ICQ list on my site. You can browse the ICQ
numbers already there (currently just me!), and add your own number to the
list straightaway.
It's at:

Are there more effecient motors than pager motors out there? Because I'm
about to go buy some, but I'm not going to do that if there are better
motors out there...
And what exactly is a coreless motor?
Could you modify the windings on a pager motor, or are they too small?
Cos I wsa reading about DC motors that they rewound with bigger wire and
less turns to give more power for R/C racing cars.
Heck, a BG Micro lens motor would be great, if they were for sale
anywhere...

Of course there are more effecient motors than pager motors. Do you think
the pinicale of DC motor design would be packaged for a few cents into an
aqua blue pager? of course not! :-) Pager motors just happen to be
effecient. Rather accidentally if you ask me. Anyway, you shouldn't hold out
for more effecient motors unless your rich. One of the things you learn in
beam, REAL quick, is that quality=cost. Really, really, nice motors run into
the hundreds, or thousands of dollars.
