replacement

The only reason why I bought this was I actully got it in not working,I call Robot Market they said to send it back and they would make good.I was going to but I couldn't wait so I said screw it and did it myself.
I love these motors as well.

Tough little motor

Ditto to the other reviewers. These motors are very well made and can take a surprisingly high voltage. 15V is no problem and 22V if you are careful

These motors are slightly different from the other ones, but I believe it's an improvement. The battery tabs that broke on my original seem to be sturdier on this version.

Replace in sets to be safe!

I use the B16 motors on my beetleweight combat robot and wanted some spares. These replacement motors seem to be more robust than the standard, particularly on the solder tabs which are very delicate on the standard motors. An important thing to keep in mind is these motors are wound differently and have higher RPM than the standard. If you use two independent drive motors R & L- you may have to replace both motors to keep the speed synched, unless you have other means.
