I am finishing up the cooling ducting to the two motors for my Fiero project and while in the dentist chair this afternoon remembered that I would like to monitor the temperature in the motors.
I seem to remember one of the hottest points being the brushes themselves. I am going to drill and tap about ¼ deep for 4-40 screw on the wire end of the brush. Concerns would be these: are the brushes a god point to read temperature? Am I in danger of splitting the brush during this process? Will the screw threads hold up? Would I be smarter attempting to epoxy the thermistor to the brush instead? Oh, What temperatures should I expect?
