used for my walker. I am powering them with only 74act240 chips. More
than enough power to get it through sticky situations.
I have followed your tutorial and have had no problems. Keep in
mind that there are walkman motors with different shaft diameters. The
cheapest walkmans at "wally-world" worked for me though.
