I need to know how to wire a component to the motor

Hey Guys, I was wondering if you could tell me how to solder a capacitor on a motor to give it the boost. I've got a one farad capacitor so yeah. A tutorial on this would be great, thanks.

If i where you i would search in like a miniz forum if you want some sort of schematic, because they use caps on their cars alot...otherwise i would put the capacitor in line with the batteries and the pcb. also make sure your capacitor has the lowest esr possible because then it will act like a battery...if the esr is too high it will act like a resistor. All a cap will do is add an initial punch to your motor cause it supplies extra current almost like another battery...it won't effect top speed at all though because it discharges pretty fast(less than a second)

well i dont know about that stuff but the way your suposed to do it is solder it between the 2 contacts on the motor but make sure you put the right polarity.

Hey Thanks Broke ess. That's what I thought, I was just double checking. Hey would you happen to be interested in some li-ion .95 Ah batteries? they're 3.6 V but they're half the size of the original ones. I'm thinking of charging $10.00 a piece and then capacitors for $10.00 a piece and si4562dy fets for like $4.75 a piece. Let me know, cuz I'm starting an online business.
Thanks for your help.

hey man you got any pics of the cells? i'm interested in them for a project but i need to know how small they are compaired to like an AA battery.

Hey I don't have pics yet (i gotta order the parts) but I found a site.
1/2 AA- http://www.tadiranbat.com/prodpdf/vi...et=TL-2150.pdf

I hope that helped. What type of experiment are u doing?

well i cant get too much into the detales, but i need to fit 3 (4 if they are the right size). also do you know what the mah of the cells are?

HBDrummer4god · #8 03-22-2005, 08:39 AM

they are .95 Ah so I thibk that's like 950 mAh. I understand about your project, no worries.

I think the li-ion are just half the length of an aa battery, not half the width, too.

that might still work for me. let me know when you get things set up cos i'm going to need some fets too.

Hey. Alright that's awesome! I'll let you know when I get everything up. I'll probably just end up paying for an ebay store, but don't worry, there will be no bidding. Well ttyl.
