QUOTE(kueks @ Nov 13 2024, 12:14 AM) yup the thing is they didnt say what items to buy haha, not local video Yup, your connection looks correct. Just to point out that the motor used in the YT video is thisi asked shopee seller and recommended me to buy below , sorry for very crude paint drawing ahahaha motor will be soldered then connect to pwm, then wall plug connect to dc jack and put black and red wire to the pwm turn on power and good to go ? [attachmentid=11505872] ![]() And your speed controller can be one without reversing function. If the direction is not correct, just reverse the wires at the motor. Brushed DC motors change direction when you change the polarity of the wires. ![]() Both of these save a bit of moolah over what you have in your diagram |

QUOTE(kueks @ Nov 13 2024, 11:49 PM) thank you both so much for the guidance Would something like this be suitable? Just suggesting, don't know your actual requirementsi feel that the original stock motor is 6mm in diameter? the one i bought from shopee has 6mm in diameter from the below YT video is from minute 14:45 he started to show the stock motor head/connector from the original marble run set say the head is too loose xD thank you for pointing out the motor used in the YT is from the shopee link which i see is 4mm, hmm cannot really test till i go back to my condo and get the marble set run xD hopefully it fits else i will have to buy brass coupling shaft connector from 6mm to whichever mm the head size is manage to make it works, the pwm shows RED color indicator when power on, should be ok right, no need to have green light to be safe? xD any keywords to search for or possible diy kind of thing to buy from shopee to house the pwm + motor + on off switch cos seems too bulky and messy to carry around without a "housing for them" [attachmentid=11505905] ![]() As for the red LED on the PWM controller, don't worry about it. The LED color is red, there is no green. It is just to show the PWM is ON (I use a few of them too) |

QUOTE(kueks @ Nov 14 2024, 10:14 PM) icic mostly u use for what purpose haha, thanks for the casing recommendation Use "autowire"i just realize the soldered red wire to the motor is quite flimsy abit of pressure will tear off the wayar haha, or i can replace with thicker wiring ? hmm or use black tape to tape off the wire so not so fast to break I use PWM to control my drill press motor speed, for controlling peltier module, and a few for LED brightness |
