Here's a complete description of a 100 RPM Double Shaft BO Motor:

???? BO Motor – Double Shaft – 100 RPM

Description:

The 100 RPM Double Shaft BO Motor is a low-cost, compact DC geared motor designed for use in hobby electronics, educational kits, and small robot platforms. It features two output shafts (one on either side of the gearbox), allowing you to attach a wheel to one end and an encoder disc or second wheel to the other. This is useful in projects requiring motion tracking or balanced movement.

This motor operates in the voltage range of 3V to 12V DC, with its best performance typically around 6V. It has a gear reduction system that provides a rated speed of 100 RPM, suitable for moderate-speed robotic movement with light to medium loads.

⚙️ Technical Specifications:
