Overview

These tiny brushed DC gearmotors are available in a wide range of gear ratios—from 5:1 up to 1000:1—and with five different motors: high-power 6 V and 12 V motors with long-life carbon brushes (HPCB), and high-power (HP), medium power (MP), and low power (LP) 6 V motors with shorter-life precious metal brushes. The 6 V and 12 V HPCB motors offer the same performance at their respective nominal voltages, just with the 12 V motor drawing half the current of the 6 V motor. The 6 V HPCB and 6 V HP motors are identical except for their brushes, which only affect the lifetime of the motor.

The HPCB versions (shown on the left in the picture below) can be differentiated from versions with precious metal brushes (shown on the right) by their copper-colored terminals. Note that the HPCB terminals are 0.5 mm wider than those on the other micro metal gearmotor versions (2 mm vs. 1.5 mm), and they are about 1 mm closer together (6 mm vs. 7 mm).

 

 

Versions of these gearmotors are also available with an additional 1 mm-diameter output shaft that protrudes from the rear of the motor. This 4.5 mm-long rear shaft rotates at the same speed as the input to the gearbox and offers a way to add an encoder, such as our encoders for micro metal gearmotors (see the picture on the right), to provide motor speed or position feedback.

With the exception of the 1000:1 gear ratio versions, all of the micro metal gearmotors have the same physical dimensions, so one version can be easily swapped for another if your design requirements change.

Gearmotor Dimensions

In terms of size, these gearmotors are very similar to Sanyo’s popular 12 mm NA4S DC gearmotors, and gearmotors with this form factor are occasionally referred to as N20 motors. The versions with carbon brushes (HPCB) have slightly different terminal and end-cap dimensions than the versions with precious metal brushes, but all of the other dimensions are identical.

Great for keeping bank statements clean but random security delays are frustrating
Reload type: One Time Reload
I use the balance reload tool to manage my monthly budget and easily hit credit card sign-up bonuses. It keeps my bank statements totally clean by grouping dozens of tiny e-book and movie rental charges into one single transaction. Most of the time the whole process works flawlessly and the money shows up in my account within five minutes. It is honestly the easiest way to put a hard limit on my family's everyday online shopping. You just need to watch out for a few annoying system quirks when you load larger amounts of money. Even though it usually works instantly the automated security filter sometimes flags big reloads and freezes the transaction for hours. This random delay is incredibly frustrating if you are trying to add cash fast to catch a lightning deal before it expires. You also have to remember that this balance is strictly non-refundable and cannot be used to buy other gift cards. Overall this is still a great method for organizing online spending and maximizing your cash-back credit card rewards. It totally fixed how I track household purchases but you definitely have to tolerate the occasional processing delays. My best advice is to load your account a day or two before you actually need to buy a big-ticket item. It works perfectly as a budgeting tool as long as you know the rules and plan for the random security hold.

Fantastic for gaming and productivity, but missing USB-C rechargeability
Color: Classic Black, Color: Classic Black
I recently purchased the Razer Orochi V2, and overall, it is an amazing mouse. The build quality is absolutely fantastic, and it feels premium. It fits perfectly in my palm, and the materials and clicks have a very pleasant tactile feel. I use it daily for both gaming and work, and it performs flawlessly in both scenarios. Compared to my Razer Pro Click, the Orochi V2 actually fits my hand much better. In fact, I now only use the Pro Click as a backup for when the Orochi's battery suddenly dies! There is really only one downside for me: it runs on disposable batteries rather than having a built-in rechargeable one. On the plus side, it only needs a single battery to operate, and I love the clever design that allows you to use either a standard AA or a smaller AAA battery depending on your weight preference. However, I would really love to see a future version of this exact mouse with a built-in battery and a standard USB Type-C charging port. If you don't mind swapping batteries occasionally, this is a near-perfect mouse. Highly recommended!

Amazing mouse even for big hands.
Color: White
So I have big hands and what any big hand gamer understands is that you either have to get a big ol heavy G502 size mouse or use a certain grip to hold all these mice for smaller handed people. I previously owned a Model O, G pro, and Model O wireless. Having big hands my biggest peeve with all the other mice is that they’re ambidextrous mice so they are even harder to hold with fingertip/claw grips because the smooth, near flat, symmetrical sides. I only really make contact with the sides by pinching my fingers with them. I never make contact with the butt or base of the mouse with my grip. There’s where the Orochi changes things The Orochi somehow is a smaller mouse than all of the above but fills out my hand and grip SO much better. The sides actually have slight grooves so I don’t slip off the sides of my mouse and the shorter but bigger hump in the middle makes me for once actually feel the mouse in my palm if I want. Overall the feel is amazing. Battery life varies of course but I can barely tell there’s a battery in the thing even when flicking and the weight and balance of it feel so good. Mobile gaming is the main reason I got this mouse. I like that the dongle stores inside the mouse, uses batteries so I don’t have to worry about keeping it charged or bringing around extra cables to charge it, and the Bluetooth is good for casual gaming but doesn’t do great with big flicks so the 2.4ghz connection is required for esports games. Overall a great mouse and really awesome to game with and a little plus to it is that the shell comes off the back so satisfying, it’s hard to not fidget with it by taking it on and off haha. Well worth the money and I’d expect they’ll make a rechargeable one with all the success this mouse has accrued so far so if the swappable batteries don’t tickle your pickle, I’d just buy a sub $20 rechargeable battery station or just wait for a new rechargeable Orochi to come out.
