I bought four of these motors, brand new and they all have the same issue. Amazon RS-550 , Amazon RS-550
I am a bit confused by the Horsepower: 100 watts claim. The motors require 12V from various specifications I found it requires between 0.8A and 1.3A as high peek. I have two variable power supplies:
One which has the following selection: 12V 4.3A 50W all the way to 24V 2.5A 60W
One which has: 3V 1.5A all the way to 12V 1.5A 18W
When connected on any configuration the motors just spin in bursts they spin up and slow down and spin up and slow down with no continous movement.
What am I missing here? Do I have an inadequate power supply? But looking by voltage and amps it should be enough to at least spin the motor under no load.
Looking at this video the power supply should be able to power the motor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfiIY1I_MY0
