An exception is Ninco, Scaleauto and Pro Slot, which label the packages or the motors. Slot.It, Scalextric, Carrera and most others do not. The majority of motors draw less than half of one amp; a few draw more, and even less draw a full amp or more, the latter mostly commercial track types, which are mostly not on the SCN Motor List.Robert Livingstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10201415963039261346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28398874.post-24836921402536945502008-02-23T16:59:00.000-05:002008-02-23T16:59:00.000-05:00Current draw, hmmm....I know people have asked for...Current draw, hmmm....<BR/>I know people have asked for this, and it is important if you have a limited power supply. Trouble is, makers sometimes publish the amp draw at max efficiency, or at stall, or at peak power. Those are three different values. I'll look into this.Robert Livingstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10201415963039261346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28398874.post-17100655552988134262008-02-23T14:13:00.000-05:002008-02-23T14:13:00.000-05:00Hello Marcus, if you notice it's my uncle Rob Livi...Hello Marcus, if you notice it's my uncle Rob Livingston that posted this.
