This project is using the parts from a recordable greeting card to drive two motors that can run off a 9v battery. This greeting card also has a moving part that is a small flat motor, so I cut the motor off and measured the voltage 1.2v. I need that voltage to turn on a transistor which will turn on the 9v for the motors. So I practice with a 1.5v AA battery connected to the base of a transistor and it works, but only turns the motors slowly, if I hook up a 9v to the base then the motors will turn fast like they should. The transistor is a NPN NTE47. Is this the wrong transistor or what?
