Hey guys, running a small chainsaw sharpener motor with its 9.6V battery in a custom job. Unsure of the running specs of the motor itself, but would like to create a timer circuit to control the motor.
Question is whats the best way to limit the current of the circuit so i dont ruin the battery (battery specifies .7Ah)
Do i need to be limiting the current? or does the motor itself provide enough resistance to reduce it to an acceptable level?
running 20 1W resistors in parallel doesnt seem like a very clean option either,
thanks for any assistance
p.s. would be idea to have current limited to at least below 3A as thats the max current my darlinton transistors can handle
