Its performance is degraded compared to the earlier motor (#71427). The only advantage seems to be its lighter weight.

I’m guessing it may also be cheaper / easier to manufacture.

I burned out two of these motors in a high-torque situation (my Great Ball Contraption module prototype) which I posted about here and here.

I don’t like them for their friction, their louder sound, and that they “feel” cheaper than the originals (weight, mostly).
