All,

I got tried of always changing batteries so I purchased a 9V Battery
Eliminator from Radio Shack (273-1552) and connected it to a 9V battery box
by soldering on 9v battery leads that snap on the 9V Battery Eliminator.  I
used a volt meter to test everything and it all looks okay and has the
correct voltages (9.47V).  The problem that I am having is the motor run
very slow when the 9V Eliminator is connected to the leads that were
soldered on but with I connect a 9V battery to the leads everything is fine
which tells me the connections are okay.  What am I missing?

Thanks
Hart

Put another way, a 9V battery can supply a lot of current at 9V, but the battery (...) (24 years ago, 26-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Hello! I've just gotten an RIS 1.5 set for Christmas, and was wondering what sort of drive would be best to use for my first major robot (I've completed all those in the constructopedia). Also, what do you recommend to do program-wise? Should I (...) (24 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics)
