Thanks for your help

Well, typically the name of the motor gives a good idea of what it's real world application is. For instance:

The drill motors are from Boch cordless drills, like you would find at your local hardware store.

The van door motors are used on (GM i think) mini-vans that have power sliding side doors.

The window motors are used for power windows in some brand of car.

The seat motor is used for power seats in some cars.

The Globe motor is used to engage 4WD, in a SUV.

The CIM motor is used on a power jack on a RV (I think)

The Fisher price motors are from those little electic cars they sell for kids.

Try http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/motor.htm for a basic introduction to how electric motors work.


Well, to estimate, servos are slightly weaker that your pinky finger. So, if you can pull it out easily using just your pinky (i.e don't move your hand, just bend your pinky fiinger), the servo should be enough.

Any other questions feel free to ask away.
