Motor and transistor

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. :slight_smile:
