Bad because the arduino pin should not be driven that hard 30mA at most.
Hm, I've read about 40:
DC Current per I/O Pin 40 mA
I understand that it is bad, but I do not have an appropriate resistor yet, and I never let to run those 60mA for more than 2-3 seconds.
How are you measuring this?
Like this.. mm. How can I measure this other way?
Try measuring the collector / emitter voltage under load / no load conditions then measure the current again under load / no load.
Yes, I'll do this as soon as possible, thanks. ![]()
