Good afternoon guys,
I was hoping someone might has some insight for me. I have a cordless stick vacuum and i am trying to lower the RPM of the brush roll when it is on the lo setting. The battery for the vac is a 12v, 9 cell pack. There are 2 settings, a high and a low. I have already done some analysis and i just need to regulate the voltage going to the brush bar motor to 5 volts to get the required rpm. I need to know what i would use or add to the circuit to accomplish this? I was thinking a Zener Diode, but i'm not sure.
If you can help it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
John.
