Re: homemade speed controlllers (for school project)
So what I'm basically sayingis generally speaking a mechanical speed control will run down the battery faster than an electronic one, and it will get very hot. Electronic is better.[/quote]
yea i know but its so simple. not sure he said he was going to use a battery actually. if its unlimited power supply and littel heat isnt a problem id just make a mechanical.
