I was trying to build a robot arm.
If I don't use a transistor, the electric motor I use will life, a piece of card with a smaller electric motor taped to it, and if I connected the bigger motor to the transistor the motor won't lift the cardboard piece with a smaller motor taped on. I tried using a multimeter, if I don't use the transistor, I get a current reading of 1.35 amp I think, if I use the transistor I get a current reading of 2.64 amps I think. I already used a multimeter to make sure current is flowing. The motor still does not seem to be moving. The motor is a 555 mabuchi. The transistor is a tip110. I will post a schematic soon
