  Technics motor
 
Hi Can anyone here telle me how much power a stalled Technics motor (the new geared ones) draws? I'm trying to figure out how cheap I can make a bunch of H-bridges for those motors. (I need a bunch of'em :)) Regards/Mvh. John Jensen (25 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)

Does anyone know what a good price for this set is in the UK at the moment? I have seen all the reviews and really want to get it, but I want to make sure I get it for a good price. Thanks. Mike (25 years ago, 6-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)

  Building Belle
 
Belle is a labor of love for me to build. Ever since the Rock Raiders came out, they have been taking so much heat from the Lego community at large. Personally, I think it's the best color scheme (behind M-tron, of course). I decided that such a (...)

  Re: 8428 Turbo Command CD-ROM
 
I paid $40 U.S. for mine (list price is about $60) and at the sale price I think it was well worth it. The main reason I bought it was to have something for my 8462 Tow Truck (on order) to tow, but the 8428 by itself has really exceeded my (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jun-00, to lugnet.technic)

Well, I don't mean to annoy anyone and post marketing spam, but if you goto lugnet.buy-sell-trade newsgroup and look for Etys Dya Shopping, you might be able to pick up an 8456 from them.
