FONMY Wind Spinner Motor with Remote Battery Operated 20RPM Hanging Display Rotating Motor for Disco Ball Baby Crib Wind Chime Mobile Yard Decor Ornaments Outdoor Sculptures-Golden Color-Medium Speed

I don't like cartoony looking mobiles so I made my own out of swans for my baby. she liked it and would coo at it but it was a little boring for her because they just hung there. So I put them on this thing and it has bought me SO MUCH MORE FREE TIME. She loves it, I love it. It turns them a little faster than maybe a spinning musical mobile box but does the job perfect and I can use the remote to turn it on and off as it is too high for me to reach the switch.

I was a little nervous about other reviews for this product which stated that the remote didn't work and that the only way to control the motor was with the remote. The product I received did have an on/off switch on the motor housing. At first I thought the remote wasn't working but then thought I would try flipping the battery over. When I did, then the remote started working perfectly. I have to say, that the direction you face the battery seems to be the opposite of other remotes I tend to use. Although now that I look closer, there is a + indicator on the flip side of the battery holder. Should have looked closer for it the first time I guess. Anyway I've included a picture which I hope helps to demonstrate the correct direction for installing the battery. Note that I also used a CR 2032 battery which should last longer than the CR 2025 battery called for on the box for the motor.

I have a wind spinner hanging from this, and hung it indoors, too high to reach to turn it on and off. I turn it on and off with the remote, and it dies every couple of days. It appears that maybe the remote doesn't fully turn it off since the batteries die so quickly. It stops turning, but still kills the batteries. I quit using it because I can't afford to keep replacing the batteries. Very disappointed.

It works as advertised, my 1 problem is it did not include the battery for the remote. The motor requires 2 AA batteries, no problem we all have some of those around the house. But the remote requires a 2025 button battery. Anyone have 1 of those lying around. Not likely. I had to go out and buy one to get it to work. Why not charge .50 more and include the battery. Other than that, it work well.

Received "20 RPM motor with remote" and installed batteries (not included). Put 2-1.5v AA alkaline batteries in motor unit and 1-3v #2025-2.5mm button battery in remote (can use #2032-3.2mm). Unit worked well for day-1 with remote at 50'. In day-2, motor stopped responding to remote at any distance, but continued to work manually at switch. Apparently the receiver required near maximum battery capacity. After reviewing discharge rates of various AA batteries it was apparent that AA alkaline batteries have a declining capacity discharge rate starting at 3,000 and going down to 1,000 mAh, while AA lithium batteries have a mostly flat capacity discharge rate starting at 3,500 and going down to 3,200 mAh. Based on this information, I replaced the alkaline (MnO2) batteries in the motor unit with lithium (Li-FeS2) batteries and all has worked well since (10 days and counting). I then ordered a "10 RPM motor with remote" because I wanted to slow down the spin on my larger spinner and use the faster motor for my smaller spinner. Using lithium batteries the "20 RPM" motor is operating at 23.7 RPM and the "10 RPM" motor is operating at 16.3 RPM, whereas using alkaline batteries the "20 RPM" motor is operating at 22.6 RPM and the "10 RPM" motor is operating at 15.2 RPM. These measurements are without any attachments and show that the RPM is about 1.1 more with lithium batteries. Also, the receivers on both motor units are more sensitive using AA lithium batteries. However, the "20 RPM" remote (about 3" long) works at long distances of at least 50', through glass, and without pointing directly at the motor unit, whereas the "10 RPM" remote (about 2" long) works only at short distances of at most 5', not through glass, and only while pointing directly at the motor unit. There appears to be a difference in the wireless technology between the two units and I would not recommend the poorer performing unit.

I have to update my review - I previously gave it a 1-star rating because i wasn't able to get the remote to control the motor. i have since learned that the fault was in the batteries i was using and not the device! Apparently my batteries were too old - even tho they had never been used - as they produced a blinking red light on the remote. When i inserted brand new unused batteries, they produced a solid red light on the remote and the remote controls the motor beautifully from a good distance away! So my advice to anyone whose remote doesn't work, is try again with brand new fresh unused batteries. If that doesn't work, return the unit and repurchase - it's a great little device!

Works really well! I've been using it to spin my babies homemade Mobile for the last two weeks. I constantly have it running and forget to turn it off but it seems to be just fine still.

Only the remote control's "on" button works after 2 months. "Off" button stopped working for no reason. Going out to manually turning it off after use is a pain.

Muy bueno. Funciona perfectamente

Wir hatten schon einen Drehmotor, der drehte aber Tag und Nacht und den waren die Batterie leer. Hier kann ich so ein und aus schalten wie ich möchte, cool

Vide les piles même a l’arrêt la veille pour la télécommande consomme de l’énergie et au bout de 2 jours sans servir et malgré des piles neuves elles se retrouvent a plat Dommage de plus ça tourne trop vite

Pensavo reggesse un maggior peso, errore mio. Acquisto sbagliato.

Funcional, cumplió mis expectativas
