So I spent this sunday afternoon doing some field research and soldering in order to be able to drive a #LEGO #train #motor via #ESP32forth using a #L293D motor driver and a nifty #rechargable #9V Lo-Ion #battery that holds a whooping 1300 mAh. I use this to power the #ESP32 (with a #LM2596 regulator) and the motor (via L293D).

And the best thing: the setup works, the code works and yes the motor runs.

So far so good. I actually found something in the shop and so the first aproach gets a USB power supply using #LM2596

I drilled some holes into the box but my problem with at least 2 dregree too much, remains unfortunately.
