Something like a car door window motor maybe? Or maybe a motor gearbox from a kids toy car or suchlike?

I have some pretty small motor/gearbox assy's from peristaltic pumps at work?

What voltage are you after and what is your geographical location? (Not everyone is in the USA )

I don't know your power requirements but you may want to strip old colindictors or tape cassette decks. RS electronics have a nice range of drive goodies too. Happy hunting

All of the above, plus, What are you wishing to drive?

Voltage? Gasoline (petrol)?

Load?

Speed?
