Re: AC Adaptor?

That sounds about like how I thought it worked.

Can the stall current be estimated by applying Ohm's law, using the resistance of the motor, and the nominal voltage?

And could one add a large capacitor to the power supply output and be able to get a CIM turning?

as for the torque to turn a transmission, if you wanted to test the electronics, there really is no need to have the motor installed....my understanding is that the original question is how to test just the electronics without the hassle of having to deal with a battery. If the robot is assembled, the battery is not a hassle to deal with, as it is mounted in the robot, and easy to connect.
