Re: What is a denso window motor?

So i compared your calculations with a Fisher Price, to get approximately the same dimension of spool (3") lifting 50N , The torque ratio goes down considerably to 4% instead of 20%.


It seems safer to run at a smaller percentage of the load torque to reduce current consumption. However, I am bit worried of running the fisher price close to stall to keep an elevator lift stable at a high position compared to having a window motor.
