OK, I meant "general purpose motors". If you consider everything that is
available today and turns if you apply electrical power to it, you get:
- 5114 non geared 9V Motor
- 5300 Train Motor 9V
- 624 9V Motor. Actually, a motor block with two axles for
building Lego cars. Uses 9V battery box.
- 2932 Duplo train engine
- 5221 Technic Motor. A motor block with
battery compartment and switch.
- 8735 9V Technic geared motor (as found in
Mindstorms sets)
- 9748 Microscout
- 5600 Car base with remote control
- ???? Cybermaster (has one motor built into unit)
- ???? 9V Micromotor (available through Dacta product line)
Many of these are available in many different sets. I only listed one set
each for reference. Watches and clocks excluded :-)
And if you include out-of-production sets, you'll get a much longer list.
There's the monorail, 12V trains, 4.5V trains, and so on.
