Fonmy Hanging Display Motor 10 RPM Low Speed with Remote for Wind Spinner Ornament Hanging Decor Baby Crib Mobile Battery Operated Motor

Exactly what I needed. I made my own mobile and my daughter really liked when we spun it so I started searching for a motor. After looking at the reviews, I was a little worried that the 10 RPM was going to be too fast but it’s perfect! Attached a video so people can see the speed, I’m sure mine is a little slower due to the weight of my mobile. Zero sound comes from this motor which is great. The only thing is the remote has a mind off it’s own but I don’t mind since a couple of taps or moving closer usually gets it working again

...but it does the job quietly and smoothly! I picked this up to replace the wind-up 1-2 minute music box on my baby mobile, since we have other music sources and just wanted something to keep the mobile spinning. I was not sure how fast 10rpm would be, so I took a chance on this purchase. I've included a video so that others can see how fast it spins!Update: the batteries lasted me about 3 months before needing replacement, with intermittent use of 3-6 hours a day. The speed slowed to a better mobile pace as the batteries drained out, and I've been happy with its slower speeds.It operates without the remote, if you do not wish to use the remote. I did not even stick batteries in my remote; just turning on the mobile after adding the AA batteries was all that was needed. Size-wise, it seems to be the same length as the wind-up box that I had originally, which was an important factor in my choosing this one over the 7" long cheaper models (even though I do not have need of the included remote).

I gave it 4 stars because the remote is under-powered and I have to be about 3 feet from the spinner to activate it.Other than that it works good for my purposes. I have found that in order to use it outside, you have to weatherize it. If you rotate the top counter clockwise a half turn it will lift off (picture 1). carefully remove the two connectors from the PC board by pulling up gently with needle nose pliers. remove the three screws and then remove the PC board and motor. you may find rust on the Infrared receiver legs and the switch (picture 4). Clean it off, wash with alcohol and tape off the connectors and switch with painters tape. Spray the board on both sides with clear acrylic spray. Let dry. Put some grease around the shaft (Vaseline will work) right at where it comes out of the housing. Slide the motor back in and screw it down. Put a drop of WD40 on the switch and carefully slide the PC board back in. Then put the connectors back in with the short cable going to the connector right under the metal board holder an the long cable going to the connector near the battery compartment. Screw the top back on. On the bottom side, put clear Silicone sealant around the IR receiver and a little grease around the switch and motor shaft (picture 5). This should help seal out the moisture that kills the thing. I also put clear packing tape to seal the battery compartment and the top. Mine works great now.

I am revising my review and rating. I bought this to hang outside to use for my wind spinner. As stated in the original review, the remote would only work if you held it a few feet from spinner. I usually forgot to go out at night and turn it off. Because of this, the 2 AA batteries only last about 1-2 weeks. I have changed them 3 times already since purchase. Also after going through a few rains, the outside off/on switch has started to rust/corrode. I don't think I have had it 2 months yet. So I reordered the one I had for a few years that takes a D battery. I suppose if you are using this indoors in a control environment it will work for you. But, it just didn't meet my needs. Money wasted. After reading several reviews, I bought the white slower speed motor with remote to hang my spinner outside by the bird feeders. The wind spinner takes 2 AA batteries that did not come with it, but the C2025 battery for the remote did. You must make sure the spinner is turned on (see small tab on the bottom). I did read the remote would only work about 3 feet away and pointed directly at the spinner. That is correct. I had hoped I could stay on my screened in porch and use the remote in the evening to turn it off. That did not work, I have to step outside on my patio to make it work. But overall I am happy with it. I will know more of the inside corrosion after it has been rained on a few times. The last one I had didn't have a remote, but it lasted about 4 years.

It spins too fast for a mirror ball. It needs a variable speed motor.

Great little motor to move my artwork!Remote makes it easy to turn on and shut off!

This is our second purchase! We ordered one for our baby’s nursery to hang a mobile and now that we have baby #2 on the way, we ordered a second one for our now toddler’s big boy room and new big boy mobile. We love the remote feature as we usually only turn on during naps. It spins pretty fast when first turned on but evens itself out and slows down to a nice speed quickly.Battery is included with remote. Batteries not included for motor. You will need two AA batteries.

Don’t waste your money.Yes the remote worked (not from a long distance tho)Yes it spun at a decent speed for a mobileBUT my gosh the batteries do NOT last long at all!!! I would turn the spinner on for maybe a total of 1 hour in a day and the batteries barely lasted a week. I changed the batteries and again they went out a week later. And yes the batteries were good name brand quality.The item itself is thin cheap plastic with a few wires inside. No quality or weight to the item. And no batteries included for device or remote. Don’t waste your money. Buy a better quality one that will actually last.

Même pas 5h de fonctionnement et toune déjà plus malgré le remplacement des piles. Je ne recommande pas.L'axe de sortie du moteur était mal orienté et la tige frottait sur l'alèsage. J'ai ouvert l'ensemble et dessérai la fixation du moteur électrique. Et maintenant cela fonctionne sans frottement.Faire un contrôle qualité en sortie du produit;

Works great for 3D spinners

Mit 10 Umdrehungen pro Minute sehr gut geeignet für eine Deckenpyramide

Great for adapting to make self stirring mugs..( decoration only) Halloween/ wizarding world style

Perfecto y con el mando va muy bien.
