Default electric motors

'Speed 300' - that's a motor that will take 5-6A on 3-6v.

If you post up the sort of fan diameter and power you want to use, I can
tell you what would work.



Actually, I'm after a slow speed (30rpm) windmill affair, with LEDs at the
'wingtips'
I've bought some POT's and LED's a few strip circuit boards, just hope the
simple motors can
withstand the torque as the whole arrangement also needs to rotate around
the base axis.
so the path of the LED's create an imaginary ball - approx size = 20 to 30cm
(if you see what I mean)
