Testing
Some of you guys think it should be so simple for those of us working on this stuff to just run down to the store and pick up the parts for testing. It isn't. I spent considerable time at Harbir Freight this morning and purchased three DIFFERENT pumps before I got one that would even begin to work in a testing setup. Why you ask? Because the motors in the first two were NOT brushed DC motors. I had to take them out to my car and unpackage them before I could even determine what kind of motor they were. Luckily both included an exploded view of the motor in the schematics. I'm at Lowes right now looking for the meter and various connectors. If they don't have it I will head for Home Depot.
