as has been discussed on this list, the Handy Board wasn't really designed for three volt toy motors. Reducing the voltage and doubling the motor chips is a reasonable approach, however. The Handy Board requires 7.2 volts to operate, because of the (...) (28 years ago, 1-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I think I might have wrote something wrong before. I said that you can use an external battery of 3V. I take it back. Sorry... I didn't realise that it would only work for 6 volts to 36 volts. Ooops. :b ericson mar Master of Engineering Candidate (...) (28 years ago, 1-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi Fred I am attemping to run two low voltage DC motors (as motors 0 and 1), around 3V each(I don't have specs). I have piggybacked two of the motor driver chips (and maybe adding a third) to handle the higher current but they are still getting (...) (28 years ago, 1-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
