8 815turbo New Member Aug 11, 2011 #1 I have a blower motor from a car operating on 6vdc for a project i'm doing. I've a cell phone to control when the motor is on and how long. I have 1.5v Output from phone(vibrate motor) I need when phone vibrates(1.5v Out) it engages 12v(6v) circuit(turns motor). Any Help?
