Hi @Volhout,

Are you saying the AliExpress listing may not have been entirely accurate - shock!

It's one of these (though maybe not from this specific listing): https://www.aliexpress.com/i/3256801296478138.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt.

I've measured a few and they are around the 17 ohm mark with no click (that I can hear).

  Volhout said  You cannot drive it from a picomite pin directly.


I assume you mean it is inadvisable, since using the PWM command I was able to do exactly that.

Note both Mick and Peter have mentioned 5V, these are listed as 3V/3.3V ???

Best wishes,

Tom
