I tried in VLC and Windows Media Player and got errors on both about the file being corrupted or damaged. :roll:

My guess is that it's a 6 volt motor, but that is just a wild guess.

John,


As you can see from the name tag on the motor, this is definitely a 12 volt unit. It is not too fast, but rather the proper speed for the early motor and gear set up that it has. Let me say it again. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS LIGHT. IT IS A 12 VOLT UNIT. You can take that to the bank!!
