3V DC Hobby Motor with Fan

This Small 1.5–3V DC Motor with Fan is an excellent choice for students, hobbyists, and educators working on science projects or simple experiments with DC motors. The motor comes with a soft 3-leaf fan blade, making it safe to handle and allowing users to visually observe rotation speed without risk of injury or damage. Lightweight and affordable, it is perfect for classroom demonstrations, STEM activities, and DIY tinkering. The motor is equipped with a pre-attached cable for easy wiring, though in some cases, the jumper may need re-soldering after shipping. Compact and easy to integrate, this motor is a must-have for basic electronics learning and creative projects. Featured By RoboticsBD.

OUR EVALUATION RESULTS:

These small ‘130 size’ DC motors are designed to work from 1.5 to 3VDC for typical battery use, but they will also work fine for periods of time on 5V such as if experimenting with PWM or DC voltage for motor speed control.  Speed and current will vary with the voltage and load the motor is being operated at.

The fan blade is a simple press fit onto the shaft and allows the rotation of the motor shaft to be more easily observed which is handy when playing with speed control.  The blades are made of a soft plastic to avoid damage to fingers or things if it is bumped while spinning.

The male jumper pins make these easy to use with solderless breadboards.  Reversing the polarity of the leads will reverse the direction of the motor rotation.

The electrical connections where the wires attach, like on any small motor of this type, are subject to breaking when being flexed repeatedly.  We toss in a zip tie which can be placed around the motor and leads to strain relieve them.

Like most small hobby motors in this form factor, there are no specific provisions made for mounting.  These motors are typically clamped, glued, Velcroed or zip-tied in place.
