Micro low voltage relays.

[bdebde]

Found these micro relays at Newark Electronics. Contacts are rated for 1 amp. Coil voltage is 3 volts, spec sheet says they will make at 75% (2.25 volts). Should work for a dual cell. Max coil voltage is 150% (4.5 volt). This should work for three cells. They are also available with 4.5 and 5 volt coils, for more cells. Newark part number is 29c7707 for the 3 volt model. Newark also has the mosfets for the mosfet mod. I got some but I don't know if I have a steady enough hand to try to solder those little buggers. The relay should be a great drag racer mod, dump the juice from the battery straight to the motor. Results to follow, I have a Zip sized (Zip body fits it) custom four wheel drive with kit racer gears to see just how fast these little cars will go before they get airborne.

Here is a pic of the relay:
