I have made a diagram of a setup up that would make a motor change direction if a switch is used. (it basicly reverses the polority)
I have tried to make one that used only one battery, and only one switch, but it wouldn't work without a short circut somewhere. (unless you use a switch that has 4 connectors on it, which I don't have)
Since I haven't actually built this, I don't know 100% that it would work. I am certain it will.
If any one knows a simple way to do it with only one battery, and as little parts and wires as nessesery, please tell me.
This setup can work with other things too, since it doesn't have to be a motor. You could even use 2 different voltage batteries. (but make sure the motor can handle it first)
Agreed, when I used a 9v to power a fan (which had a moderatly large motor) the battery only lasted about 10 minutes continuesly, (and it got very hot).
I have a AA battery holder that can hold 4 in a series, I will use that instead of 9v.
Also thanks for the info on the switch. I will see if Radioshack has one of those.
