These are very inexpensive turntables that run for hours on a single "D" battery.
Our 2 speed rotating turntables are made entirely of high quality plastic with a felt covered turntable surface. The round platform lifts off revealing the motorized base, gears, and battery compartment. We offer three sizes of the turntables that share the same motorized base, only the round top platform is different. You could paint or cover the platform with other material.
Our website, www.usaturntable.com carries the full line of turntables. Starting November 1, 2007, you can custom order the color of the top of your choosing.
All units use a standard "D" 1.5 volt battery. ( On average continuous running time on a single "D" battery is two weeks plus) A small switch near the bottom of the base turns the unit on and off. The large white gear can be moved to the nearby post to change the speed from 4 RPM to 7 RPM.
So you ask?
How long will they run on one battery?
A long time, generally for at least 48 hours without stopping if you use a new "D" battery.
How much weight can they handle?
All sizes of the turntables should handle up to 8 pounds without straining. However, heavy objects will have an affect on battery life and motor life. We loaded one up with 13 pounds of books and it worked, but the motor sounded like it was working a bit hard. Also, extra weight does slow the units slightly. For best results use these turntables for objects that weigh less than 8 pounds.There are hundreds of uses for these inexpensive turntables. We sell them to hobbyists, collectors, stores, show vendors, jewelry makers and stores, hobby shops, artists, and many others. Vendors who attend swap meets and flea markets find they can sell these to other show vendors.
