Car heater motors are becoming very difficult to find but there are a range of "24v scooter motor" on ebay (MY6812) that are rated at 80w, 100w, 120w, 150w and are all around the £20 mark & look similar to the MMM T12 T24 motors.
Has anybody tried them? Has anybody tried them at 12v?

Ministeve has used 12v ones I think but they are no longer available. Is this 24v & if so what voltage are you running it at?
