==An idea== Messing around with trying to fit two 595 power shift registers onto the next board design and with moving up to an 18-pin socket for the motors the following ocurred to me: *Given that we only want to be able to turn on one motor at a time, having two 595's is quite redundant. *An 18-pin socket is hella big. *If we used one 595 plus a switch controlling two separate power rails, we save money and board space and, best of all, control up to 16 motors with a 10-pin socket (assuming that we swap the always-ground pin with the second power rail). *The drawbacks of this design would be: **It further complicates the already complicated construction of the pager motor array when needing more than 8 motors **Using any arbitrary combination of multiple motors could only theoretically be done by switching really quickly between each half really quickly. Doing this with LEDs one would likely see the flickering, doing it with motors however may not be as noticeable?
