The under-powered can opener we call it. This electric can opener takes (2) "AA" batteries but is as weak as the old "My dog ate my homework" excuse, so we suggest using it for parts instead of trying to open cans of soup with it. Or better yet, find a way to add another "AA" Battery. It has great parts either way. A six-way set of meshing gears and arms, a 3VDC 90mA/220mA motor that spins approx 5K (torqued out), and two-piece plastic case. Great for DIYers, hobbyists, small-motor heads or thin cans of soup. Not sold as a working kitchen can opener. 

Teacher Alert! At this price makes a great school project to show the inner gear workings of a gadget!

This little 1.5-3VDC motor draws just 15mA no load, which means it's just the ticket for solar-cell applications. At 3VDC it spins approx 600 rpm and stalls at 125mA. Measures 1-1/8" long x 15/16" dia with a 5/16" long x 1/16" dia shaft and 3-1/2" leads.

Brand new hanging 1.5VDC display motor. Measures 6-1/4" long x 2" diameter and is hinged about 1/3 of the way up to give you battery access. Shaft is 3/16" x 3/8" long with either a metal figure-8 hanger or a split ring attached. On/off switch on the side for easy control when you take your boogie shoes off. Requires (1) "D" battery that just pops in. Hanging hook on top for of course, hanging. Perfect for mirror balls, Halloween decorations or cases of Saturday night fever.

Great for roboticists, too. It's a mighty-mite, this little 6VDC 45 RPM motor with a right-angle gearbox. Draws 13mA, no load, and stalls at 120mA. Output is through (2) double-flattened 1/4" dia x 3/16" long shafts on opposite sides of the white plastic housing, both with 1/16" dia center holes. Measures 1-7/8" x 7/8" overall. Gear ratio is 228:1.

Remember those old school vibration football games, or those fantastic days-of-yore vibrating beds in roadside motels? This is like that, just sized to today's pocket-held devices. It's a very small vibration motor (10mm dia x 2.5mm) that produces a pleasant buzz. Motor has 1-1/4" power leads, draws approx 60mA at 3VDC. Has 0.75g vibration amplitude. Self-adhesive pad on one face. No shaft.

This small 3-6VDC motor draws 25mA, spins at 1100 rpm no load and stalls at 250mA. It's 2-3/8" long x 5/8" dia with a 3/16" dia x 1/4" 10-tooth sprocket. You can easily remove the sprocket if you just want to use the 5/16" dia x 1/16" shaft it's mounted on. The whole thing is mounted on a 7/8" dia plastic base with a 3/32" ID hole on a mounting wing. Can you say Science Fair?

This tiny vibrator motor spins approx 1300 rpm at 1.5VDC and measures just 3/8" long x 5/32" dia with a cam-less 3/32" long x 1/32" shaft. The cam-less-ness makes it vibration-less. So you could say that it's a vibration motor without the vibration. Has 7/8"-long tinned leads for power.

Maybe. This 3-12VDC reversible gear motor might could (as they say in the Carolinas) have come out of a camera assembly, or not. Either way it's great for artists and hobbyists. Measures 4-1/2" x 2-3/4" x 2" in a plastic housing. Spins approx 80 rpm at 12VDC with a 1/4" dia x 9/16" flattened shaft. Has (3) external rotating encoder discs and a smaller, stubby 1/4" x 1/4" secondary shaft. Quite torque-y and would make an excellent robot motor. Has (2) 4" leads.
