bakerboy Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Try moving the terminals, you should find i think 3 pairs this could slow the Magnet down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitey10765666 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Use a 12v car bulb try different ones to get the right speed, they act as a resistor, im using one my mate is using one, ours were going way to fast too, now they are just right.
