Yes actually , that's exactly what I am trying to do. Thanks for ball park scenario. Now these are the motors I'm looking at **broken link removed** since I need to order to Canada and many other websites are unavailable to me. The ones that I would think seem good to go are the sold out bottom 2. I found this badboy **broken link removed** but I don't know if it's my computer or there website. I can't get the damn checkout to work. For a charge regulator,I also don't know where to look and will it make my circuit much more complicated? Thanks for the insight alec_t, I've heard that yea my cap will loss voltage allot quicker than a battery, but the one thing is that I'm trying to build this without the use of any batteries. My understanding right now is that electricity is always taking the path of least resistance , so what I thought was that once the cap had enough charge , it would then power the motor and be unable to discharge anywhere else because of the diode. What I didn't know is that the cap would blow.My colleague who sold me the caps said there made from all these great materials like aerogels etc and just showed me the simple circuit I showed above with the motor connected to the cap and didn't bring up the reg.
