Home made motor run in tool

[PaulRotheram]

Hi all, me again, no come back dont run away

after discovering most people run there motors in (most meaning top boys) i thought id try and buy one from a store, like most do. but after seeing the prices on these (stupidly expensive) i thought id make one my self and share it with you :?

the design is very simple, basically its a box with a heatsink on it, 4 wires, amount of cells you wish to run your motors in with bearing in mind each cell is 1.2 volt i have been told the norm is 5 volt, but a few others think its too high,soon find out?? a pair of croc clips and two corrallys.

basically found the centre of the box, marked it up and drilled two holes for the screws. i tapped the holes out and then screwed on the heatsink

Then added some wireing loom:

two corrallys are used to charge the cells up via charger and two other wires connect to the motor

the heatsink is used to keep the motor in place whilst the motor is spinning, and also acts as a cooler to keep heat and wear away from the motor whilst its being ran in!

simple, and cost bugger all to make cause i had all that in my pitbox!

bored you all enough now i suppose hehe.
