The first number in the 'at this V' column is the lowest voltage we were able to get the thing to go on at all.  We usually had to help it get started.

The next column, 'draw at (mA),' is the draw at that voltage, according to the really lovely fancy power supply upstairs with the digital outputs.

The ohm values are just division according to Ohm's Law, '''V / I = R''' .
# The ohm values are just division according to Ohm's Law, '''V / I = R''' .
# The power consumption of the motors tested is '''P = V * I''' .
The thinking behind 'starts from Most Stuck' is that the point at which it stops on its own is the stickiest point, and it would be good to know how much voltage it takes to overcome that.  The process we used is this:
