Hi, I just need a motor (stepper?) that is solar powered that runs continuously in one direction and that can move(rotate) while moving about 100-2-- grams of weight.
Sorry I'm super new at this.
Any recommendations are appreciated.
Best!
Do you need precision position control? If not, a stepper is not called for. What speed of rotation do you need? How precise of speed control? A low votage DC gearmotor may be a better choice for solar power depending on the answers to those questions. Where does the Arduino fit in this project?
You can power any motor from a solar panel if the solar panel is big enough. Stepper motors are very inefficient.
It would be usual to use the solar panel to charge a battery and power the motor from the battery.
