Our second test was of the "don't try this at home" variety. A person held the motor in one hand and an adjustable wrench on the output shaft in the other hand while a second person connected the motor wires to a battery. The old motor had a lot more torque. The motors have different worm and ring gear designs, and they also have different "winds."

I wouldn't consider the "Jump" as an accurate method of torque testing
