You could, but running it at 5V and only 1A it'll be a bit underpowered, if this is for your small circular saw ...
What would be an ideal Ampage for this application?
Someone compared your application to a Dremmel and those are 130-175W, so at 6V would be 20-30A
This saw will cut 2mm thick coffee stirrers.
Most mains motors make more heat than anything else.
It seems cordless go for a higher voltage to imply quality or power. The world has gone mad. What is wrong with 'shaft power'?
So, plucking a number from the air...if the battery can make more than 200 cuts from coffee stirrer stock that will be satisfactory..as a starting point.
A genuine Dremel has quite a lot of "oomph", metallurgists use them to grind and then polish a few square centimetres of steel often starting from a pretty rough and rusty surface. For cutting through a couple of millimetres of wood with a proper saw you probably only need 10 watts or so.
What rating of motor?
I presume that means torque. Dunno anything about it.
What is the specification of the motor?
Dunno.
Motor info in the link.
Er, you links are to a battery and cable
I have a Bosch 10.8v combi drill that has a 1.5Ah. I would guess this battery will drill more than ten 6mm diameter, 2" deep holes in masonry. I think the power required to drill one of those holes would make a lot of cuts through coffee stirrers.
Which reminds me, no one has answered the orig question which is, will a 6 volt motor work if the power banks charge is transferred via that cable.
It will spin round, but whether it will cut anything depends on the power of the motor, the gearing, the diameter of the blade ...
You don't get it do you?
Of course a 6V motor will work, if it's big enough. Some engines are even started with a 6V electric motor.
What is "that cable"? It's all a bit like "this motor". Very vague indeed. Are you a troll?
About 10A-20A
You need model aircaft/car batteries.
No. You will need more than that.
50W min. Id prefer 250...Join the Discussion
