Motor Possibilities List

 * Stefan: 9/21/2009:
 * 1) DeWalt Drill Motors (e.g., 750 unit watt output = 750W out of their gearbox and chuck assembly) for $54.50: [|Motor for DeWalt 36 Volt Heavy-Duty 1/2" Hammer Drill/Drill/Driver Kit with NANO Technology (Drill P/N DC901KL, Motor P/N 647560-01)]
 * The only problem I see with something like this is that we don't have a data sheet, maximum ratings, torque curves, etc. so we'd need to develop those, but this is a POWERFUL DC motor for CHEAP.
 * Other similar drill products can be found on the DeWalt website: [|DeWalt Cordless Hammerdrills] or [|DeWalt Cordless Drills]
 * Pricing on lower power "replacement" motors: 230 UWO 12V motors: $16.67 -- [|12V Motor Replacement Part]
 * 1) For a more "traditional" approach with torque curves (albeit not great ones online, but I'm sure they can give us better info): [|ElectroCraft "Build Your Own Motor"]

 * Contacted on:
 * 9/21/2009 by Stefan, initial pricing ($100-$1000, may be able to get us 100 piece pricing or some other discount). Given "Build Your Own Motor" site, was told to e-mail for pricing if we find a motor we want.
